    Power steering failure on Mazda5 (TSB: 06-002/09)

    Took my 2008 GT in for the TSB repair today after failing yesterday in 100 degree heat. They apparently can get the parts and finish the work today by the end of the day. I saw a bunch of people that were waiting for long delays in parts getting paid loaners/rentals, has anyone been able to...

    install kit to din radio

    I too noticed the slight gaps around the ac controls but think I can deal with them. However, any good suggestions as to what would work to fill in the gap in the middle of the two din areas, the gap between the radio and the pocket? I was thinking of some sort of a black foam of some sort but...

    Seat Cover

    No i ordered the 08's they are a little scarce right now it look like. I had ordered from Showcase but they couldn't get them. I ended up ordering from http://www.mazdaparts.org/mazda-5-seat-covers.html. Yes, there were six armrest covers included.

    Seat Cover

    I purchased the Mazda covers and am using the covers for the back four seats of our car. They fit perfectly and will hopefully keep the leather in good condition with the kids using the back seats. They are a bit expensive as compared to generic covers but they are a perfect fit.

    Replacement Head Unit Question

    One other question. The car is an 08 gt with bluetooth included, i assume that comes out with the radio and would just get unplugged from the head unit. Should the mic be removed as well or just left in place in case we ever decide to go back to stock. Will probably add bt to the new head...

    install kit to din radio

    Quick question, attempted to do a head unit change on an 08 gt tonight and ran into a slight problem with removing the console components needed. I have copies of the metra guide as well as the crutchfield master sheet but both seem to be geared towards 06-07. I followed the instructions from...

    Replacement Head Unit Question

    I am getting ready to replace the head unit on an 08 Mazda5 and wanted to find out the following questions if anyone knows the answers. Will the clock on the lcd continue to work or will that go with the radio unit? How much room is there in the dash after a six cd changer is removed, enough...
