thanks for the info. The instructions I received were orange/white for some strange reason, Devin however did end up telling me what it was.
I drove around and the light that shines on the ground looks weird.. I may have not done something right, I will have to check. The wiring is still all messy, I had to cut open one of the cable organizers that came with the kit because the ground cable wouldnt reach the stock socket and the other cable at the same time. I dunt know if I can manage to check if all is in order.. I dunt even know what to look.

Your bulb looks like it's not even sitting properly. Probably the cause of the light pattern. Try reinstalling the bulb?

apparently mine dunt. I posted on the mazda3 forums and he replied. the spacer is supposed to be hollow at the bottom to allow the wires and etc to pass thru but mine is not for some reason so the spacer doesnt sit flush with the base of the bulb. see its not me... :) I have already emailed me to send me a proper updated pair of bulbs. I aint got nothign here to cut that plastic up so i dunt wanna f around with it. oh well, just have to wait for the new ones and see how they fit.
*update* now hes telling me he doesnt have spacers that actually fit.... we'll see what happens.

I bought a dremel and I am going to try to re-use the thing i have now if not I will fit the ones I get next week.
1. The relay itself its like a plug the fuse and the plastic holder with all the wires in there... its like a square thing. ok now.. if one of the wires came out (which it did) or If i need to re-wre what do I do? Do I push out the metal bits, reclap and reinsert? pls advise anyone who knows what I am taking about.
THANKS

Ok since Devin doesnt seem to want to answer my questions ok here goes its kind of wet outside n dark so I probably cannot test it myself so if you know feel free to chime in.
1. I have the independant fog mod.
2. I decided not to use the relay and the DRL bypass for the following reasons.. a. the taps wont work properly this time I have no idea why i couldnt for the life of me get the taps to close nicely. b. i notive because i tapped into the side lights when i lock or unlock the car the HIDs will flash WITH the sidelights.. i dunt think this can ever be a good thing.
3. No having said all of that.. if in the daytime I set my headlights to totally OFF position.. turn the lever all the way down. will there be running lights?
4. If I set it to auto.. what happens then? Will my HIDS be on full power or flickering etc what exactly is the issue.
Thanks guys
