What have you done to your P5 today?

[StealthWyvern]

You know you love her and she loves you....she's just looking for a little attention. lol Seriously though, is the hole really bad? If so, cover it with a floormat and get that MSP.

Chances are if their are rust hols showing up that the metal is thin else where.

Discovered a rust hole in my floor board, causing soaked carpets. yay. Time to find something to trade it in on.

yikes! i know where there's a really nice low mileage spicy msp!

Can you see if the dealer can do anything about it? I thought they had rust coverage over a giant time period

thing is, even if they fix a couple of the holes, how bad is the metal elsewhere that they don't fix?

Yeah...I'm way out of that warranty. It was only 5 years. The car is a perpetual rust bucket.

Oh, I know. I wish I could pull that off. Trust me!

By chance you played too much with the needle? You will have to take everything apart again and inspect carefully the needles and see if the mechanism is in the correct position and resting where it should be.

Don't know if you understand me but once you take it apart you will know what i mean. Just be patient when you do.

not bad but be fair warned that the factory alarm system is know to go out! That stupid box is 100 a pop ircc.

 

[i12drivemyMP5]

or 47.00 in some stupid auction...I'll just swap it back to what I have now if that happens. I've had amazing luck with the same silverstars that a lot of folks say they pop every 6 months so we'll see where it goes. Got the innovate LC-1 today too so that's another wiring job with the MPI waiting to be done.

Just replaced the PS HID ballast....thanks again to Protephile for the outstanding customer service. Should Tam get a Mazda3....I'll be placing an order for another kit.

 

[maestro]

Replaced a headlight bulb. Usually I replace both at the same time but I keep the working bulb for instances like this. Looks a bit funny right now as I have a Sylvania whitestar (?) on one side and PIAA on the other, they don't quite match.

The nice thing is the Mazda 3 is already equipped with projectors!

Yep. Rust. I hate this bloody car, I swear.

Do you park on concrete, gravel, or dirt? That would explain a lot.

 

[mx-p5]

That is true about the 3, but they are not HID projectors.

But, they'll do alright

I'm sure....for the last week and a half I have been running with a 5K HID in the DS and an Osram Silverstar in the PS.

BTW I keep my old bulbs too for the same reason.

Yup...stopped by to see it on the way home and found one mistake. They have it listed as Aurora Blue but it is Phantom Blue (what I initially thought it was)...bonus as that is the other color Tamz likes.

The paper in the window listed it as a 3s touring...still trying to make sure that is right.

Ordered a 6000K RTX HID conversion kit, a sri from eBay and a short shifter + bushings from TWM! Also worked on my headlights (DIY restoration thing)
