Hey...
I've tried the mazda3forums and they can't seem to help...
Do you guys know what connectors are in the 07 GS bumper?
I have one of these black ones on each side of the bumper:

And these two grey ones in the center of the bumper:

I know they are not H11 b/c I bought H11 fogs and they don't fit... and Devin from the Xenonstore said they are not the 9006...

So what exactly can I do?

do you have fogs??
cuz if you dont have fogs, then your car is pre wired for them.

yeah i don't have fogs
but i now they're supposed to be "pre-wired"
but as far as I know, the "pre-wires" are NOT H11 or 9006.
they are the ones in the pictures above, which is really confusing b/c no one knows what connectors they are!

Those look like the plugs that connect to the factory fog lamp harness. Did you buy an OEM kit? If not you will need to buy the short harness that goes from that plug to the bulb.

hey Flipdady,
where abouts can I get this "short harness"? if its from the dealership, whats the part #?
I emailed a company that sells alot of bulbs and they have no idea what connectors these are. i have a bigger picture of where they are located:

Did you ever have any luck with this? i want to buy the OEM fitment ones. (on e-bay for 90ish dollars right now)

The part numbers for the harness only are BR5V-51-5J1 and will cost about $20.30/each.

FYI, the ebay OEM like kit fits in the bumper but I think the connections are different.

Hey Flippy,
dont the 07s come with that 9006 connector thogh? because i remember retrofitting a set on someones car and i dont recall having to install the harness adapters or are those adapters now connected to the foglight housing itself?

It's a weird design, but that wire is connected to the foglight housing and from there, there is another wire that goes from the foglight housing to the lightbulb.

why would they do that? or is that a fix solution for the connectors if they start corroding?
