Default I Need Help

I live up north and i drive a 2006 mazda 3 S GTI have been having issues with how low it is. The snow up here gets mushed up in the wheel wells. I want to raise the overall height by a couple of inches. Advice? It has stock H I D headlights but they a re very dark for highway driving. Can I convert them to standard bulbs? And where do I find a drivers side window switch? And I'm ready to start doing some work on it. Where should I start? Thanks.

If you have HID headlights they should light the road better than standard bulbs. Sounds like something else is wrong. We live in Minnesota and our 3 never had problems in the snow. Try a set of Blizzaks. You can probably order your window switch from Rock Auto.com.

HID lights are 2-3 times brighter than standard bulbs!
You want to raise the car because of snow mushing up in wheel wells? Has your car been lowered? Pics would be nice. You will lose some of the handling in summer!
You should have bought a CX-5!
