    Has anyone installed the side storage nets?

    The OEM side storage nets are nice, and very easy to install. The side panels just pop off and the holes are for the net hooks. This allows everything to be completely recessed in the side storage areas.

    70.00.335 Firmware

    There's no separate fail safe file anymore as there was in the previous releases. If there's a problem, I understand it just falls back to the existing firmware.

    Yakima MightyMount's sizing (CX-5)

    Did the MM20H fit your OEM crossbars? I too liked the non-universals better. Please post pics.

    2016~2023 Windshield Drainage?

    This is the hole I'm referring to. The material I pulled out looked like leaf debris, but I'm curious if everyone else's is also just gunked up or if this hole should genuinely have a plug in it. https://imgur.com/a/pomnHaX

    Almost instant boot-up

    There's only the single file in .355C NA, though once you complete the upgrade, the version shows 70.00.355C with a failsafe of 70.00.355C, so I'm assuming they rearchitected it to automatically overwrite the old failsafe once the primary update is verified OK instead of requiring two uploads...

    2019 CX-9 interior lighting is way too harsh...How can I change it?

    Those interior lights are all DE3021 type bulbs. You can replace those bulbs with a warmer white LED, a colored version, or even an incandescent version like the one in the cargo area.

    2016~2023 Windshield Drainage?

    Does anyone see a 1/8" hole in the black plastic cowling under their passenger side windshield wiper? I was pulling pine needles and gunk out of that area, and can't tell if that is supposed to be an open drainage hole or if I accidentally pulled out a plug that should cover it. There's no...
