Awesome! I put in a request to join :) I'm really happy with how the car sits and I haven't even tinkered with the ride hight yet. I did however go 0 soft and then click up up 15 clicks to a medium stiffness and it's 100x better. I think it was at max stiffness when I first test drove it...

Hey! If you were anywhere near, I would drive over to shake your hand for that writeup. I don't think I would have even attempted this install by myself without your detailed documentation as a reference. I would have lost my mind on the first bolt that didn't break free! haha so, thank...

Hi guys, I'm a casual lurker on here and used to be huge in the Mazda scene when I was with my Spicy Mazdaspeed Protege. Took a tour and now I'm with a Mazda5 that unfortunately suffered some blown struts and the stealership wanted a fortune to repair. I decided to order some BC Racing BR...

Hi gang, I have a Canadian '09 Mazda5 with Daytime Running Lights (DRL) which I can't stand and I want to disable them but not be dark during the day. (canada) Originally I was thinking to try and redirect power from the DRL to my fog lights, but I new ideas came to mind. Does anyone have...

Just buy the retainers off Amazon or Ebay. I ordered mine from Amazon for $3. Shipped from China so it took weeks but it was worth it. You can also ground the HID ballasts out and skip the capacitor step. It works just the same and there are bolts to ground to chassis on both sides near the...

Is anyone still here? :o Looking for body kits too... suggestions?

Does anyone have a resource I can reference for installing a backup camera on a 2009 Mazda5? I found the video online about installing on a newer model but that doesn't apply to my vehicle because my lights are not part of the hatch lid. I ripped a bunch of panels out of the back but I...

What are you looking to replace it with? I had my bumper off a few weeks back to install some Hella horns and it looks nice and easy to remove. I might paint mine body colour since I have 2 bottles of colour matched paint sitting in the garage :)

Has anyone put LEDs in the headlights of a Mazda5? I have an 09 and wanted to do a HiD conversion but I'm considering going the LED route this time. Hoping to learn from your experiences before I purchase.

Nice unit! I think I have the same or similar haha. Mine has more gap around the a/c controls than yours but this looks familiar. I didn't wire my unit completely as it was near midnight when I was working on it so I do plan to rip it all out again and do things like backup camera...

Has anyone here used this kit to install an aftermarket stereo? I installed a 2din deck last night and the fitment is so terrible I can't believe this product is even on the market. It bulges out around my AC controls which is pretty bad. At least a screwdriver width tween the bezel and...

So you were basically just going to swap the headlight wiring with the fog light wiring? Did you get a chance to try this? It sounds super simple and might achieve the right results. I also keep my lights to "Auto" so I'm trying to maintain that functionality. I need to take a longer...

Thanks for that link. I think this is same person as the e-bay seller who is currently showing zero inventory (on eBay). I'll email to enquire.

thanks for the reply, but I'm not after the factory spoiler. I'm looking for the same spoiler as pictured by this member http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=160107&d=1261594047 It actually overlaps with the factory spoiler more like a lip would on a bumper. The only...

Does anyone have a lead on where to find one of these other than ebay? I can likely import from Japan but I'd rather not go through 5 different people. Thanks!
