Hi guys, I'm a casual lurker on here and used to be huge in the Mazda scene when I was with my Spicy Mazdaspeed Protege. Took a tour and now I'm with a Mazda5 that unfortunately suffered some blown struts and the stealership wanted a fortune to repair. I decided to order some BC Racing BR...

Hi gang, I have a Canadian '09 Mazda5 with Daytime Running Lights (DRL) which I can't stand and I want to disable them but not be dark during the day. (canada) Originally I was thinking to try and redirect power from the DRL to my fog lights, but I new ideas came to mind. Does anyone have...

Does anyone have a resource I can reference for installing a backup camera on a 2009 Mazda5? I found the video online about installing on a newer model but that doesn't apply to my vehicle because my lights are not part of the hatch lid. I ripped a bunch of panels out of the back but I...

Has anyone put LEDs in the headlights of a Mazda5? I have an 09 and wanted to do a HiD conversion but I'm considering going the LED route this time. Hoping to learn from your experiences before I purchase.

Has anyone here used this kit to install an aftermarket stereo? I installed a 2din deck last night and the fitment is so terrible I can't believe this product is even on the market. It bulges out around my AC controls which is pretty bad. At least a screwdriver width tween the bezel and...

Does anyone have a lead on where to find one of these other than ebay? I can likely import from Japan but I'd rather not go through 5 different people. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I'm new-ish to this forum. I used to lurk years ago when I had a heavily modified forged Mazdaspeed Protege but now I'm in a Mazda5 mini-mini van with little ones skampering around the house. I'd like to ask if anyone has attempted or can share insight on how to rewire the DRL...

Hi everyone, So I had my car diagnosed at a mechanic and was given a $1000 repair quote to replace 3 gaskets in the turbo. Exhaust mani to head, ehaust mani to turbo? and turbo to down pipe I believe. I'll double check later, but I'm wondering if you guys can offer advise on doing this...

Hey all, Looking to see if anyone knows of any Spicy MSP's that are around that have been written off or anything of the sort. I need the two passenger side doors. Mine are dented to hell from a parking lot failure. To bondo and respray the side of the car is going to cost pretty much what...

Ok, so over the weekend I decided to give my Unichip another try. It was running flawlessly for about 2 days. Today suddenly my car has been running horribly. I'd be driving at cruising speed and steady around 14.7 AFR's. Then it started hesitating/shuttering like hell and I noticed my...

Hey all, So this morning I had some interesting thing happen when I went to start my car. It started, but as it was turning over it made the normal chugging sound and then made a sound as if it was just freely spinning with no combustion. Did that for a second or 2 (which seems long as hell...

Just wanted to say Hi to the community! I've been a member of TOProtege.com for a long time and for some reason I never registered over here. I have heard good things about this community so I figured I'll get involved. Anything I should know? I drive a 99 LX TE thats bone stock aside from...
