    Hankook Ventus AS RH07 Tires

    I've had the Hankook Ventus on for about 6 months now. I traded the Duellers in with 400 miles on them and the tire shop had the best deal on the Hankooks. I have been really happy with their performance with a variety of conditions and a few long road trips. They are quiet and track really...

    Any experience with 3M clear bra on CX9?

    I had VentureShield film installed on my white CX-9. I think it looks great, other than the noticeable line across the hood. Here is a link with some great shots of a CX-9 (not mine) getting film installed http://www.clearbraphotos.com/gallery/7402783_dXzcq#476932449_7fkpr I would recommend...

    How to upgrade 08 bluetooth to 09?

    In my 09 GT w/Nav, I transferred my wife's phonebook to the car via BT when I first set up the phone. It does not maintain sync with the phone after that, but did the job in getting the entries loaded. She has a LG ENV2. I also occasionally use the BT audio from either my Blackberry Curve or...

    3 finalists to replace the Duellers

    3 finalists to replace the Duellers

    I am in the process of trading up my Bridgestones to Hankook Ventus RH07 245/50/20. Since I live in the Northeast, I have to get off these OEM skates while I can. I was only able to find one tire center that was willing to trade up. They recommended the Hankook as a better AS tire than the...

    iPod integration module vs. BT audio in a 2009

    I have both A2DP and AVRCP enabled on my Blackberry. Once I start a playlist on the phone, it is nice to be able to jump forward or back from the steering wheel, but you are flying blind without the track information on the screen. I find the quality from the BT Audio pretty good, from the...

    iPod integration module vs. BT audio in a 2009

    I've played with the BT audio and my Blackberry Curve. While the audio quality is very good (I think better than the aux port iPod interface), it really stinks that no track information is displayed. I checked with Mazda support, and they confirmed that the audio interface will not display...
