what are the led called name brand and where to purchase please?

[@Mark_Tishman]

Thanks man. 40 minutes fighting with these lamps. Now I understand, that I need to buy the adapters.

[@bower95]

To reinstall the rubber boot, simply pull the bulb out of the metal ring after installation into the headlight housing, this will allow you to reinstall the boot, then slide the "bulb" back in, making sure it clips into place. Alternatively, you can install the adapter and the metal ring into the headlight housing without the bulb, set up the boot, then slide in the led "bulb" at the end.

[@aeyherr]

This would be a better idea but I just put 4 incisions around the area where it holds the adapter to allow extra wiggle room🤷‍♂️

[@stanky98035]

Thanks for the help. I didn't have the plug adapter so my friend and I made up a harness and I notched the end of a flat screwdriver and bent it 45 degrees which worked great to get the clip back on. Couldn't have done it without your help.

[@NieShop]

I was thinking about order it too but didn’t know that I also needed the spacer, thanks for the video

[@blademonkey]

Great video. Thank you.

[@phuonghuynh9579]

Where did you buy the led bulbs?

[@GregMas1928]

Is it with EU homolagation?

[@Dalotay]

You can put the rubber back in before the plastic adapter, the heat sump won’t be protected but at least you won’t have water going into your headlight.

[@Catsrules1]

Thanks for the video, it was very informative. Have you had any issue with water getting into the headlight? I think most of those LED bulbs are waterproof but I was worried that water would enter into the headlight compartment. Also how did you water proof the cable part where the light wire plugs into the old bulb adapter and then into the car power?

[@johncare]

Excellent 👍

[@terribleplayerWT]

where did you find the adapter shown at 4:25?

[@stefanzlatanovic7521]

I have a 2008 Mazda and is it hard to change the right one. The fuse box is so close. I am still not sure how to change that bulb for low beam. It is going to be really tight. Only thing I can do is remove the bumper and remove the headlight completely.

[@louisbarningham]

Same, I looked yesterday and yeah my hand doesn’t fit haha

[@j.gotsnkrs]

How do you change your highbeams to LEDs as well?

[@angelfinol971]

Must be used the plastic adaptor? What happen if not? Thanks 4 the video

[@congoparrot]

what year is your Mazda3?

[@PashaDZR]

Спасибо мужик, очень помог!

[@RyanAlexander87]

@MegaSafetyFirst how is this holding up a year later? Any dirt or water get in the projectors which would make the lights worse? Because the rubber piece doesn't fit, of course.

[@zachmurphy5932]

The rubber piece does fit, bro just didn’t think about it. Put the led bulb through the rubber piece before installing it 🧠

[@JesusJoel18]

@@zachmurphy5932 but the Led bulb it's made of metal and it gets too hot, it's not going to burn off the rubber piece?

[@franco05]

Great Thanks good video

[@sebastiaomuiambo3299]

I have replaced the headlights on my Mazda 3, same models as the one on the video, and all of a sudden the light regulators motors won't work. Any idea of what could this be?

[@edwinmarroquin7600]

what are the led called name brand and where to purchase please?

[@doggydog1216]

Not clear what to do with rubber cover: to stay the block outside or put it inside the pahara???

[@polovazquez3783]

Very helpful thanks for the tip 👍👍👍👍

[@diankelly6689]

Thank you first time I think I understand. I seriously hate how dim my low beams are but high beams are great. It's like everyone I know with mazda3 2010 body style my mom's 2007 2009 are the same. But my doesn't have the noise in reverse quite often. I had her car checked out. It's hydraulic and it is working. They. said replace it might be a waste of money because oem parts tend to work. the same. I had two mechanics assure me that my mom's car was OK. They explained why it doesn't happened all the time. But my 2010 doesn't currently. I thought I heard something but they look alike but they aren't. I think her car looks tricker than mine. I bought mine because I already know mazda3 and I my favorite vehicles seem to have Mazda made engines. It's not the fastest car but it can get out of its own way quicker than alot of cars out there my is regular engine hers is bigger. But I like when I can keep up with the big boys. 60 to 80 happens to easily. I don't realize that I am doing 80. I only wish that I had a v6 the mazda3 is lite and I sometimes need to have power. I have a stock and it's not the mazda3 red I love but it rusty red. I love black interior but it is to dark in mazda3 I also had hoped my mom would switch with me. She wanted a white one because of the interior. I thought that the two tones mine has was different and looked better than white cars. Ain't a white car with lite interior avenue some kind of Greyish blue. But mazda3 still have black dash and door panels only . I have yet to see the other red color with kohl interior. But I didn't know how many of mazda3 there was until I bought it. I like the beige but not on my seats. I put cheap black with leopard trim. Now I couldn't find any seat covers that backseat had a good look and I paid under 20. For front and back (which haven't been installed yet.) And my friend who installed them said I was getting junk for the price. He was pleasantly surprised. I definitely can't keep lite color seats lite. But I can't make it tough looking I would like to see where I don't have to flick the lights to verify I'm not driving with parking lights. And fog lights aren't on mine but would they help?

[@mindiseverything5036]

U could prolly get more distance if u adjust the lights with that adjuster bolt

[@Underrated32011]

How

[@attzero]

@@Underrated32011 there’s a little screw bolt right by where the headlights are inside the engine bay and you can turn it to adjust

[@pinkpenguin7880]

So much brighter - thinking of going LED also.

[@RevoltImplode]

Can you link me that adapter for the led plug to the harness I have an h7 led but it doesn’t connect to my harness and I think I need that adapter

[@VenturesOfTimTim]

Implode same here

[@JesusJoel18]

You Just need to pull out the black part of the old bulb, that's your adapter...

[@ThatPuertoRicanBoy]

Why is my plug kind of lose when I connect it

[@pnoyersopter4809]

Great tutorial video. How about your high beam, is it also LED? Is it okay if the low beam is LED and high beam is hallogen?

[@dirli7192]

So which one is better, the original or led one?

[@phthisics]

You need to specify the model year. I have 2012 and it uses H11 and 9005 bulbs, not H7s, for starters. One thing is true, though. No matter what year your hands will hurt after you do it.

[@davidguata194]

You don't have to add the adapter

[@MrMisterChiliPepper88]

That’s what I thought it’s plug and play

[@attzero]

@@MrMisterChiliPepper88 plug and play haha good analogy

[@saix81]

How safe is it to steam wash your engine with those installed?

[@kevlogs2799]

Where did you buy the spacers?

[@normgray59]

Thanks for the video..this helps a lot

[@Devo1987]

Can you Please share all links for everything you got ?

[@Underrated32011]

And where u buy the led?

[@2mikeherzog]

Great video and very detailed . thank you

[@javierbendana74]

My mazda 3 is a 2005... it does not appear to unplug like that... please help

[@johnlouden9473]

Mine is a 2005 as well and it does. Is any of it aftermarket? And what part are you taking about so I am sure

[@Iatencioa]

What light bulb brand did you place?

[@sali-ali]

What's the name of that plastic thing which you use to extend the back of the bulb?

[@MegaSafetyFirst]

I found it under the name LED Headlight Bulb Retainers Holder Adapter

[@sali-ali]

Ah, thank you so much :) I ordered a pair which looks almost exactly like yours from AliExpress, I hope it fits to my car. Btw here is a link if someone else is looking for it www.aliexpress.com/item/R8-H7-LED-Headlight-Bulb-Holder-Adapter-For-Mazda-3-5-6-M3-M5-M6-For/32862042597.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.768d4c4dUktkZP

[@DMTurbs]

@@sali-ali dude your amazing for posting that link. I attempted installing led with the fan before but couldn't figure how to get it to stay in place securely so gave up.

[@NellyNellz.]

Where is the link to the bulbs u bought?

[@DOUGIE6969]

Where can I order a adapter ?

[@perrnic]

What about inserting the protector by the bulb side before inserting it in the headlight ?

[@savydaniel]

Good question, but no. The protector goes over the original socket a bit, but it won't go over the cooling system of led. You could just cut it...make a bigger whole.

[@nixablaza6655]

Hi i loveeeee the video very detailed of how to install it. but i need the info of what LED i need to get i dont wanna buy the wrong size or wrong part for that spacer thank

[@oscarmedina9850]

Nix Ablaza just search up your exact car and the name of the part online. Should come up with results and bulb size should be in your owners Manuel

[@MrPanzerDragoon]

I have this exact car except it is not a hatchback. I absolutely hate the adapter or that weird copper plug thing and weather cap/boot setup. The connectors burn or melts and I failed to pass inspection. Hopefully the LEDs will work better. Still, terrible setup. My Subaru Crosstrek (2014) has better setups and connections compared to this.

[@aceareza9052]

What is size of your led bulb??

[@frankzappa_5189]

H11

[@am-mj9ee]

Hi could u write down the link for shopping tthanks

[@joennykorea6197]

Can led light screw up any electrical that’s what my dealer told me

[@ThomasShelby-uq8cz]

No. He's wrong. He is probably a old man that doesn't like people having LEDs lol

[@kxlucifer]

No if anything Led comsume take less power and it way more brighter.

[@tim2269]

My metal clips broke off.Any way you know how to secure those LEDS into the housing?

[@jewelskye7059]

did u have any luck?

Do I need the spacer ?

[@juancotto6773]

I bought a set and what I did I put the cover before the spacer and you can use the cover, without spacer but is a little loose, I need to check the spacer

There's a way to attach it without the spacer you Just have to play with the clip a little bit around...

I can see this going really bad

[@tomah246]

Yea probably not a good idea to not use the rubber rain protection, pretty sure that "water + exposed electrical connection" isnt something I'd want in my car.

[@stepdad9953]

the problem with LED"s in this type of housing is you're going to blind oncoming traffic

[@alexandernunez8325]

Umm no it’s not since it’s a projector housing

[@stepdad9953]

@@alexandernunez8325 doesn't matter. A lot of LEDs do not know how to centralize the beam
