    Where can I find a new CMU for 2016 infotainment center? Google is failing me.

    Mazda NA said they were aware of the problem however there is nothing than can do since my car is a 2016. Translated: Yes we know it's broken but you're SOL. I was going to call again tomorrow. Keep calling. I can't figure out what part number I need. I think it's 2014-2016 CMU for all...

    Where can I find a new CMU for 2016 infotainment center? Google is failing me.

    As others have experienced, my system is in a constant state of rebooting. Dealer wants over $1300 to replace CMU, which is cute. I figured I'd replace myself. Many videos show how easy it is. However, I can't find a CMU anywhere for sale. Does somebody have a good link?

    Bricked my CMU and need a new one - what is the part number for replacement?

    did you ever figure this out? My CMU failed and I can't find one anywhere other than OEM for $1300 is that's not happening.

    How to connect LED DRL to headlights so they dim? Where to find that wire?

    Accidentally put this in the lounge. So this is x-post. I added LED DRL to my fog lights. You can see the ones I installed in 2015 here: https://imgur.com/kTQ7Kka Those died last month. Bought new ones that come with the option to dim when headlights are on. Instructions say to attach to...

    Buy Navigation card or Garmin (other brand) dash navigation?

    My OCD tendencies are why I'm leaning toward the SD card. More research is showing that it's pretty easy to hardwire but still need a cable running down. Maybe one of those solar power chargers would work. :)

    Buy Navigation card or Garmin (other brand) dash navigation?

    Searched but everything seemed dated. I have 2016 Touring. I want navigation. I was thinking of just doing a Garmin but the closet power source is in glove box (unless I'm missing one). That's a long way to string a cord. I know OEM navigation systems can be weak, but is the SD card (on...

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    In addition to the LED interior lights, LED footwell lights, additional LED cargo area lights and the INFO Center hack (See my post above), I finally installed these LED Fog light covers. I bought them off Ebay. Ridiculously easy to install since they come with everything. One wire to fuse...

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    Okay everyone. The hatch lights were wired into the dome light on the lift gate. Rather simple process to run the wire. I do triathlons, which mean I'm at race start around 530am. I need the extra light. The foot well lights were wired into the dome/map lights by the rear view mirror...

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    Added two LED lights to my cargo area (only left side pictured). Added two set's of blue LED lights in front foot well area (only driver side pictured). Hacked info center screen to show my Spartans. I'm only supplying picture links because the pics were HUGE...

    Tried Everything To Get Iphone/Info Center to Show Text Messages. Still Not Working

    I have V.55 in my car. I FINALLY GOT IT TOO WORK. I turned off iMessage. I also turned on 'show on lockscreen'. Normally I don't want anything other than 'badge' telling me I have a text message. Apparently you also need it to show a notification on lock screen. So that was the issue.
