Hi, new to the forum. Here is a picture or two of my slightly modded 2018 CX5 AWD. Going for the de-chromed look. Just added some 21" Alloys, now considering a lowering kit taking it down by 30mm ish

Do you have a spacer on that wheel? It seems like there would be rubbing issues.
 
Do steering controls work with this?

Could someone post a literal idiot proof guide to wiring the damn key 1 and key 2 wires that are found on aftermarket headunits? I spent weeks trying to figure it out and am still not understanding what I need to hook those up to, to the point where I'm seriously questioning my IQ
 
I don't, but I think I understood that it's possible to wire swc with no canbus decoder and one can then map each button from the HU Key study settings
 

You can also go directly to the manufacture:

I am using Covercraft:

I went "Carpet" and honestly I think the suede would have been a better choice but it hasn't bothered me too much to replace it.

hint -- once you find the color and material choice on the manufacture page get the model or part number and google that up. Often resellers will have it cheaper.
 
Where is everyone buying their factory style mud guards from for the 2016 CX-5?

Did you want OEM parts?

I picked up brand new OEM Mazda rear mud guards for our 2014 from eBay seller zoomparts1. Fit is excellent of course, and they came with all the necessary hardware.

Fit is right. Look is good. Flickers a little when they are doing the fade-to-off but it doesn't flicker at all when in use. Only as it's fading off

Backup bulb (stock right. Upgrade left)

(Amazon says it doesn't fit. It does. It's a little long but it fits fine.)

Pedal Covers(dead pedal not installed. Waiting for floor mats)

Great fit, not too hard to get the brake pedal cover installed. Tough but doable. Soapy water would have helped a lot.

Easy install. Comes with a sweet little pry bar. Silent when driving over rough pavement and gravel roads. Totally worth it!

Trailer hitch, rear bumper guard, switchback led turn signals and floor mats coming soon.

Suggestions for a rear bumper guard with minimal chrome accents are welcome!
