vs
Headlights Bosch or OEM Mazda
I daily my ND3. It's still brand new so I'll see what I have in store as far as reliability and maintenance. I got the soft top club trim. I traded in an 01 Mazda Protege DX for it. I drive at night so I can confidently say that the headlights are by far the best I've had.
Pros: best headlights
Vehicle:
Mazda
Had a 1975 Merc a few years ago and I swear the Bosch headlights were original
Pros: original, durable
You have late Bosch headlights, in Europe they came with plastic diffusers, ZKW headlights and Bosch headlights with projectors had glass ones.
Vehicle:
BMW
First thing I did when I bought mine was swap out the dim eBay halos for some stock replacements. Still in there 12+ years later!
Pros: long lasting, reliable
Vehicle:
Mazda
Definitely not the most popular choice but I had beat oem headlights and couldn\u2019t see a damn thing and you\u2019re not gonna catch me spending $500+ for bosch\u2019s just to be oem+ that don\u2019t improve visibility. Honestly pretty happy with the look and I really like the taillights.
Pros: happy with the look
Cons: not the most popular
It\u2019s a nightmare when I drive my 5 at night\u2026 being so low and everyone driving SUV\u2019s the lights just wreck me constantly! Sitting at lights I basically have someone firing a torch directly into my rear view mirror.
Cons: lights wreck me constantly
Vehicle:
Mazda
I had to lower the angle of my mazda's headlights. Out of the factory, they were way too high and directly shining into other car's cabins
Cons: aimed too high, blinding others
Vehicle:
Mazda
I can tell you that the old school headlights in the Miata suck.
Cons: headlights suck
Vehicle:
Mazda
I have bosche oem lights and they have very poor performance at night.
Cons: poor night performance
Is the question whether the owner replaced the horrible SAE/DOT 7" sealed beam units with E-Code H4 7" from Bosch or Hella or Cibié?
Cons: horrible SAE/DOT units
