Don't know if all dealers are this cool but... to install mine I sure didn't want to f-up any of my trim or the radio so I called the dealer and they told me to just swing by and they'd pull it for me. It was great... just slipped in there one afternoon and it took him less than a min to just...

Yup... kinda what I was thinking. OverLOAD thanks for the explanation... that does make perfect sense... you know, two GROUND points as opposed to one. Gotcha. I for one will be picking one up from RadioShack as soon as my AuxMod comes in. Thanks everyone for the feedback!!! -Dan

So who installed a Ground Loop Isolater and who didn't? Are we pretty much guranteed an alternator whine if we don't? Just wondering if I too should go and pick one up ahead of time? Any successful installs without one that sounds great? Thanks!

You're absolutely right, I am pretty eager for one of these things, and I can assure you that I will buy one from you. However, I am also interested in the "hobby" and thing it would be a great project to undertake; obviously you feel the same way. Tell you what, I'm number 700 something...

Do let us know how it turns out... we're all very curious to see if it works in that oh so sacred MD/TAPE slot. Keep us posted. DaViper: Don't worry. I'm calm. I just don't have the patience nor willingness to wait for a "Few month lead time." If they wish to successfuly sell these things...

Any luck? I am curious to see how this thing works with the P5 head units... can't imagine they're that different from the "Verified yes" head units. Anyway, also, it kind of sucks that we're sitting around waiting on a few guys to put these things together when they get around to it. I tried...

How about Ignition Wire??????? Anyone? Please? Maybe a picture or at least confirmation of where the true ignition wire is? It'd be appreciated. Thx.

Tom: Haven't actually put this system in. I just wanted to gauge peoples intrest in the Infinity's and see if anyone out there had them and what they thought of the quality of the speakers. I think I'm going to wait until the stock speakers stop sounding decent (aka I blow them) before I...

If you go back a couple of pages in this thread you'll notice that someone wired it to the true ignition wire. This is what I want to do as well but I'm not sure which is the true ignition wire. That's what my post is all about below. Hopefully someone will come along with a picture of the...

Hey bro, I believe that the ski rack from the Mazda Accessories catalog is actually a Yakima. Straight up a model you can buy in the store. The thing that's clutch is the bracket you need to "securely" mount the Yakima ski rack to the factory roof rack. If I's you, (and will be shortly) I'd...

Hey... thanks for the response! Since you work at Circuit City maybe you could answer a quick question about pro install work. Obviously I can get all of these things MUCH cheaper on EBay as this amp runs for $150.00 there. My question is: Say I buy the amp from Circuit City and purchase the...

Thanks a bunch for the reply! Did you do this install yourself? If so, how hard was it to get those 6.5" to fit in the rear doors? What about taking off those panels? And one LAST question I promise... may be a dumb one... do you have to take out the head unit inorder to access the wiring...

So I'm just trying to gauge what people would think about this system. I've got a 2003 P5 and have been wanting to just upgrade the speaker system and not necessarily add a big sub box in the back as I LOVE my hatchback space. I just checked it out today and wasn't sure what some of the more...

What about Bosch +4 Platinum?! What do you guys think about these plugs? I just bought them (NOT cheap) and noticed a big difference! They say they can run for 100,000 mi. I guess that's with the wire brush technique stated below. But yeah, I'll post any MPG improvement with the new plugs...

bump... someone?!
