    Fish Eyes

    I think they are commonly reffered to as "angel eyes" around here.

    How does the paint hold up?

    Most of the paint on new cars seem soft to me. They all seem to scratch and chip easily. Manufacturers have to deal with kinds of enviornmental issues. I have 4 small spots right in front of my sunroof that are starting to rust. It might have started under the paint though because they have...

    AutoExe Body Kit

    That sucks you are getting rid of the 5 :( but awesome that you are getting a speed3! :D Thats a lot of work you put into it tho. Are you planing on repainting back to a gloss black? What springs/suspension are you running, and are you planning to sell? Too lazy to search all your posts :p

    How to remove the plastic cover behind/inside the rear liftgate?

    I doubt it. The draw of the backup camera is very low. I might try to power mine the same way as yours. Right now mine is getting its power from the reverse light, so it only gets power when in reverse. My HU allows me to switch to the back up camera feed when ever I want, but since the camera...

    FINALLY DONE!!! ...for now.

    Thanks for the compliments! This is the dash kit that came free with my HU. http://www.crutchfield.com/p_120997509/Mazda-5-In-dash-Receiver-Kit.html?tp=3121 Also, I just installed the Kenwoood KNA G510 GPS. It plugs right into the HU and works great. Totally unnecessary in Hawaii, especially...

    2006 Mazda 5 Battery Type

    I think I might switch to an optima battery when this one goes bad. Costco sells them. Most places that sells batteries will have a booklet, or an online catalog that will specify the battery type for nearly every make, model and year vehicle .

    anyone have signal lights in the side mirrors?

    I have seen them here, you can get OEM ones on ebay. Dont know how much is involved with installing them. Might be pretty plug and play since most of the harness is already there for everything else...

    Post pics of your Mazda5

    mmm... stealthy :) I was about to reply that your rear door is not as flat as the rest, but I re-read your post. I think you mis-spelled "trunk"

    Its finally gone!

    My 07 has a few rust spots on the top, right in front of the sunroof. Probably started from rock chips. Sorry you had some bad luck with your Mazda.

    FINALLY DONE!!! ...for now.

    I was just showing the mic for the bluetooth unit. You can use the stock steering wheel controls with aftermarket stereos by installing the PAC SWI controller. http://www.crutchfield.com/p_127SWIJACK/PAC-SWI-JACK.html?search=PAC&ssi=0 I do not have it... yet. But you can read up on the specs or...

    Nah, I just used the factory wires. They can handle a lot of amps. Too lazy to run my own :D

    FINALLY DONE!!! ...for now.

    Okay, now I'm done... With the audio side anyway (whistle) I finally got my Infinity Reference 6820cs component speakers. Only comes with enough speaker wire for the tweeters tho, which I thought was strange. It also comes with a few different mounts for the tweeter, so there are a few...

    Infinity BassLink Install Questions

    You need an amp wiring kit like this: http://www.crutchfield.com/s_142PA10/EFX-10-gauge-Amplifier-Wiring-Kit.html?tp=2919 THe positive goes right to the battery, and the ground will connect to your chassis. You will need to keep the ground cable as short as possible, so chose a spot close to a...

    Blower Fan Noise

    I was thinking about this thread today while I was taking apart my glove and dash. I needed to run another set of cables for my new amp, but I took a look behind the dash to try and find the AC blower motor. Its a squirrel cage type fan, and mine had a small dried up leaf in one of the fins. I...

    What Do You Call The Mazda5?

    When I took my car in to get window tint, I wanted to go real dark in the back, but they said that I had to go 35% all the way around since it is classed as a passenger car and not a mini van... but I still tell people its a mini mini-van semi jokingly :D But I drive it like a sport wagon!
