    What have you done to your Mazda5 today?

    Thanks. 🫶🏼 I have Mazda 6 rims, which are 19x7.5" and ET45. Tyres are 235/35. They are little bit taller than original 205/50/17 and I would have liked more 225/35/19, but those load index isn't high enough, so it would have failed inspection. At my height rears will rub and I have rolled...

    Itching to customize my 2013 Mazda5

    Well, it depends. 😅 I agree that 19" will change appearance more. But still I would say that go with the M3 18". Bigger rims and lower profile tires will make the car look little bit goofy, because then the wheelgap will usually be so noticiable and will need lowering. And also M3 wheels are...

    Itching to customize my 2013 Mazda5

    Well, ride quality is a subjective opinion. 😅 I like how it rides, it's more precise and sharper. Also lowering makes a difference/impact on ride quality. Couple of my friends has said, that it's too rough/harsh. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I would say that you don't have worrie not knowing what will fit your...

    Headlight Housing Removal (2012 Mazda5)

    No, you don't have remove whole bumper cover to remove headlights. Just get upper part loose and then it's easy take the lights out. You have to make fenderlinings loose and then you can see one 8mm bolt there, which hold the bumper to fender. But if you want to restore your headlight...

    Yep, that's the lip what I meaned. But if you use AliExpress you could get it much cheaper. I got my lip from there and it was less than 10€. 😅 And changing to led-bulbs isn't difficult. Just like changing bulb, but new is just led bulb. My wheels are 19" and from Mazda 6.

    Itching to customize my 2013 Mazda5

    Oh, I forgot. Changing the interior bulbs to LED-bulbs makes so huge difference that it's almost a must thing to do! And also LED-bulbs to front parking lights and foglights. And there is also LED-lights for licenceplate lights. 👌🏼

    Itching to customize my 2013 Mazda5

    Sorry to dissapoint zoomies100, but there isn't any different lights for Mazda 5. 😅 USDM lights are basically same as EUDM and JDM, only difference is that you have that amber reflector in your headlights. And you dont have rear foglight, so both of your trunklid lights are clear. EUDM and JDM...
