    Mp5t 2013

    They are the h1. The dull finish on the paint was tricky. Went threw three sets of shrouds to get it just right. Then there was the over the border issue that we were able to sort out. I was aware of his build (I'm a fan) so getting the chance to do the work was an honor.

    auto shop in NYC & Bose speakers question

    bose is over rated. Have a look threw the reviews on crutchfield and see if you can find a set of replacements that appeal to you. Once you have an idea on the cost of the speakers you can add a few bills for the install and that will give you a idea on your pricing.

    Mazda3 Skyactive rough ride

    could pull the seats from a scion and retro them in to the mazda. I think your issue is with the seats not the ride, personally.

    Bi-Xenon Headlights change colour

    as already stated, yes it is normal. If you wanted a deeper blue you can changed it to a different kelvin rated bulb. But as already stated your vision will suffer.

    Skyactiv engine/transmissions & long term reliability

    yea ford is having issues with the transmission.. Mazda's AT is a bit jerky at starts too but Mazda just doubled the output of the skyactiv engine from 400,000 to 800,000. I personally haven't heard from anyone having an issue yet.

    Time to put the P5 down... to 3 Skyactiv or not 3 skyactiv... that is the questions

    I test drove all of your cars in question. The focus is very nice, but the auto transmission is having issues (google it). I almost pulled the trigger and got the focus. Lots of nice features that come standard. But much smaller storage space than the 3. The subaru interior is flat out too plane...

    How To: Retrofit HID projectors into P5 headlights

    The rings are installed correctly, but are not really needed for those shrouds. Four small screws would hold the shrouds on. I always use a two part epoxy to hold the shrouds to the rings and the rings to the projectors(on the shrouds that the rings can be used on). I've tried JB weld but my...

    How To: Retrofit HID projectors into P5 headlights

    are you running 55watt ballasts or 35 watt? the 55watt will melt it. Did you use any type of glue to hold everything on?

    (2010) It's a shame the lights dont automatically go on in the dark

    Drl's are the worste invention ever along with auto lights. People are too lazy to turn a switch. People with auto lights are a safety hazzard on rainy days that are not dark enough to turn on the lights and they can't be bothered to turn on their lights because they never even cracked the user...
