    Reviving this. Did you end up tapping the wires from inside? I have the led mirror covers and want to do this as easily as possible. Thanks.

    Mazda Warranty arbitration through Better Business Bureau

    That looks to me like winter road treatment (salt or sand) did that. Or you drove it on a rally course, lol. That being said, I would agree that it's a legit warranty claim. One winter shouldn't do that. I have owned many cars in be the last 20 years and my 5 has some of the weakest paint I have...

    considering downsizing to 16" alloys

    Are they the Kosei K4R's on Tirerack? If so, I just put them on my SkyActiv 3. Made a huge difference. Ordering them for my wife's 2012 5 GT this week. Huge weight savings and they look great.

    Mirror question

    Well. I bought the led mirror covers but the plug in my '12 did not have the wires for the lights like my Mazda 3 had. I didn't go so far as to pull the door panel off to see if there was anything behind it. Too bad. Cause my '12 3 was super simple. Plug and play.

    Air conditioning weak; new 2012 mazda3

    It was 105 here in Sacramento today. It took a good ten minutes to cool down but after that I had to turn the fan down. Too cold. I'd have yours checked.

    Exactly... Why blue? Red would be perfect.

    Buying a Skyactiv Auto or Manual??? Hmmmm..
