    New Blue Tooth Module

    Had my BT/USB module replaced yesterday. I'm in New Zealand and I was worried that Mazda will not do it due to the fact that TSB was for US market. They took the car in for inspection, figured which part they need to order and did the job so great relief.

    Installing US roof rails on non US CX-5

    Also looks like black mount is quite easy to attach to the shell of the car (I thought screws for rails go inside of the roof which would required bigger holes, but this is not the case which is good news)

    Installing US roof rails on non US CX-5

    Hi there, I really like the look of US roof rails and the fact that I can easily put roof rack when I need one (like i do with my current car). Our local (NZ) version seem to have same mounting points as Japanese / European cars designed for roof bars to be mounted on foots. I wonder if...
