    Tinted/painted tail lights

    I have been thinking about this for awhile and yesterday I had some spare time. I like the led tail lights, but since I got the windows tinted I wanted to make it look more appealing and make the body lines flow better.

    What have you done to your Mazda5 today?

    I just used the info from a thread in the how to section. I still haven't installed the passenger seat. My wife REALLY like the arm rest. I'll post pics when it's done. It's a pretty simple job. You use the top and lower seat pad from the 3. You attach the lower seat foam and cover to the 5 seat...

    What have you done to your Mazda5 today?

    Yesterday I got a pair of Mazdaspeed 3 seats. Today I was able to get the driver seat installed. It is SOOOOOOO much more comfortable to drive now.

    Shopping for a Mazda 5 - recommendations?

    I have a 09 Touring and I like it. My suggestion would be to buy a pair of rear adjustable upper control arms. They go for $75-100 on ebay. That way you can adjust the camber and it wont wear out tires in the rear. I installed and set and have been thankful that I did.

    Passenger (#3)/Rear (#1)/Transmission (#4) Motor Mount Experience/Recommendations

    My PMM was shot when I bought my van, so I started with a vibration. Now that I've put a few thousand miles on the two mounts I hardly notice any vibration from the eFocus mount.

    Remote Start Options

    No, you still use the factory key. You just have an additional remote fob. You use it to lock,unlock,remote start the van.

    Remote Start Options

    I have a 09 also. The PO had a CompuSTAR installed. I have used the CompuSTAR on a previous van that I had and they work pretty good. My only complaint would be that with the remote that I've had. When I have it in my pocket it's sometimes starts,disarms,unlocks,or changes features by having...

    Swenny , That is correct. The newer mount BBN339060A will work in the older 5's. I have a 09 that I just did this to a few weeks ago.
