been there, dont that. hit a rock with the heat shield you are talking about and couldnt get it straitened out properly after that. ended up just ripping out the heat shield entirely. its the easiest way to not have any rattle ever!

i couldn't get the one bolt out on the passenger side near the shifter to "extend" it down. i got the rear bolt out on the driver's side, but the passenger side seems like it's stripped the threads or something. it just won't come out, it just spins freely, even after trying to jam a screwdriver into it and even trying to pry the heat shield and nothing.

i was thinking of cutting the bolt head off, but even that would still leave the rest of it in there and not able to come out. running out of ideas to try before i jack the car back up and try again as it's a tight fit for my fat arse

and the next time i have the car in the air ill be doing the polyurethane bushings for it as well. then the only thing left is to align the shift knob since i had to get it with the pattern on it for my fianc since she is still learning manual
 
mine does the same, just spins and spins. i managed to just kind mangle the heatshield so it clears the shifter and not rattle.
 
just for your kind words, ill vote for you for mazda of the month, hehe

im debating now painting my front emblem black. i feel like the lone guy with a chrome one at this point
 
Someone told me today that them and the person with them could not figure out what the car was and were arguing about who was right...they wanted to know if it was either a Mazda6 Wagon or Mazda3 Hatch...lol...
 
hahaha its the 1st color i looked for.. blue. and of course they're always available after you buy ur car. all 3 times
 
when i was shopping for p5s all i found was laser blue, red and navy. was kinda in a rush to get a car so couldnt find the best deal, but got the best color
