Damn! I thought I wasn't going to spend more money on my car yet. But now I think I'll have to.

Get them. I live in San Diego, so I don't drive in rain much, but xenon lights are better looking, and the visibility is incredible. There throw is so much wider, further, and brighter, I won't buy a car without them.

This system is sick...already bumpin', but still working on the finishing touches. Front Speakers: Infinity Kappa 60.5 CS 6.5" components Rear Speakers: Infinity Kappa 63.5 3-way 6.5" Subwoofers: (2) Infinfity Kappa 100.1 SE 10" Speaker Amp: JL Audio 300/4 75 watts x 4 Sub Amp: (I need...

That is eaasier said than done I believe. I don't think I can get my hand back there that easy.

I'm installing a stereo and have lights for my amp rack. I want to mount the switch next to the dash dimmer in one of the empty switch housings. Does anyone know how to remove them? Thanks for the help.

Certainly some people are liars. In the same token, some are not. Others are hopeful, some just ignorant. For the most part though, I just don't think that everyone in the auto industry is dishonest. Most people just aren't privy to big stories before the public is informed. For the most...

No. You'll have to use high level inputs directly into the amps or use a line output converter and run interconnects from where you splice off the speaker level inputs. I don't really know what will give the best signal. Anyone have advice? I've never ran with a stock receiver so any tips...

Speaker Replacement I have pics taken but not posted yet on this forum . All of the specs are there for speaker sizes.

The speaker is a 6x8 in all four doors, but most 5x7 speakers work for both. There are adapters you can buy to use a 6.5" or 5.25". Check out this thread for info on the Mazda 3 audio system with full details: http://forums.mazdaworld.org/index.php?showtopic=3601&st=0

I should add, I'm considering waiting even longer and doing a custom floor installation with a fiberglass box in the rear cargo area floor. The spare is so dinky any way, I'd rather pull all of the trim out and just have a plexiglass floor so I can still use all of that space and still thump...

In short, no. One reason is money. I already have an amp for the speakers and speakers will be relatively inexpensive. So, for a couple hundred in speakers, I will have a much better sounding system. Beyond that, the whole system does need a lot of work. I want to to do a very good sub...

There has been a fair amount of discussion about replacing the stock stereo system and speakers in Mazda 3 communities, so I am going to post a guide to remove doors and the head unit. Everything is fairly straight forward but I don't want anyone screwing up their beautiful new 3. I will...

I love GT3 Sig420: Off-topic or not, that was funny as hell. My sad GT story was when I played GT2 to about 50% completion before my memory card decided to get amnesia. There went half of my freshman year of college. Mother....

If not impossible... ...improbable. I would LOVE a RWD 3, but the engineering required to transform a FWD vehicle to a RWD vehicle is monumental. An AWD system will merely require a driveshaft back to a rear differential. To make a full RWD conversion, they would need to ditch the front...

Big_ben: This is fully off topic, but since I've seen a few around now I wanted to ask. Have you driven the new S2000 yet? Does the powerband feel that much different? As not to clog up this thread...go ahead and PM me if you want. I like the new changes but I've only seen it drive...
