I like the power of the LEDs but not the light frequency.

These look like plug and play in an NA? https://www.holley.com/products/electrical/led_lighting/retrobright/parts/LFRB135

How much is normal? Looking ant my first NA and was surprised by how warm the shifter and boot area got after 30-45 minutes at 55mph.

No I'm not, I'm just pointing out (spitballing as it were) the car already has 95% of the hardware required, as do several other brands. Seems silly to rely on aftermarket devices in that case but obviously that's the most cost effective.

Same could be said about in-dash Nav systems 10 years ago, and then cars didn't already have the hardware already like they do now.

Absolutely cheaper yes. The Mazda dealer installed a recording device in about 10 minutes as part of their diagnostic procedure as to why my auto cruise was shutting off so I'm not sure about the easier part. I didn't look at the time but it probably was some sort of micro SD device...

I was toying with the idea of buying a dashcam and then thought: Wait a minute this thing already has a camera built in from the factory, I wonder if there's some way of tapping into that through the OBD port to turn it into a dash cam? I know it's sort of possible because the dealer...

Changed the wheels for winter yesterday with my garage floor jack. It doesn't have the same shape as the OEM hand jack so I couldn't use the jack points from the manual. But the undercarriage has plastic cover so I can't see where the hard points are, so I ended up using the inner suspension...

So on the last trip I had my route programmed and decided to stop for a burger part way thru, I used the nav and added the waypoint. It updated the route on the HUD but never gave me any audio guidance for the exit. If I remember I think I ended up cancelling the route and setting the route...

$250 for the 3 & the 6 https://www.mazda.ca/en/inside-mazda/apple-carplay-android-auto/

I only have direct knowledge of the vehicle I own but I doubt it's a model (or colour) specific issue.

Yep

10 months in (so half a winter) and all pavement driving I'm really disappointed with the number of paint chips on the hood, fenders and doors. When I was applying the touch up pen I stopped counting at 20 on the hood alone. Over the years it's going to look like it's got measles.

Geeze I'd settle for getting the whole song title when I'm playing that station instead of just the first 15 or so letters.

Mine will shuffle if it's playing everything but it won't shuffle if I've picked a playlist, just does alphabetical. The icons are confusing, is the red shuffle symbol supposed to be on or off?

Happened to me twice, once in crappy weather so I put it down to something on the camera, once in perfect weather (no real glare). Will mention the above fix next time I'm at the dealer.

GPs volume is 3-4 menus down in the nav unit and independent from the audio volume. The the volume knob should be all inclusive. If in the nav settings the control was to set as a percentage of the audio (say 120%) then everybody's happy

Yep, why else would I turn down the volume if I didn't want it quieter?

GPs volume is buried in the nav settings and is independent from audio volume so if you turn the radio down because somebody is napping gps isn't included, dumb. GPs volume should be set as a % of audio volume.

Is it normal to have this line between the upper and lower rows of display? https://goo.gl/images/KfmdUh It's not in any of the Mazda promo photos.
