    Got the same for sale - FS: Dunlop SP Sport 5000 tires (4x), OEM on Protege5, used for 7000 miles. Looks like most of the thread is still there but i don't have a good way to measure it. Pick up in Washington, DC area. Make an offer. BTW, anyone knows why I can't make a thread in this forum?

    Replacing factory CD player

    I already ordered everything from sounddomain including the cd player (they had a decent price and all the wiring and a dash kit were included so it turned out cheaper). We'll see about connections. As for U tools - that may be a problem but i've got lots of other tools to play around with -...

    Replacing factory CD player

    Thanx for the advice:)))) Great news and i will try to do a job myself now. Here is something i wonder about: the harness description says that "The MA03B is a speaker leads only harness for select Mazda vehicles. It does not provide power connections. For use when adding an aftermarket...

    Replacing factory CD player

    I have a factory CD player and a factory mazda subwoofer (the one in the spare tire well) I'd like to replace the player with another (mp3 playing) model. Salesman at the local BestBuy told me that there is no wiring harness for mazda cars that will keep the connection to the subwoofer, so if i...

    Need help purchasing P5

    We paid $16K (awaiting $500 student rebate though, so it should become $15.500) OTD. That includes the leather, side airbags, abs, subwoofer (which i have no use for, but it was there) and roof rack (and it is a manual). It obviously includes our local car sales tax which is kinda on the high...

    Is this a good price for a 02 Protege5?

    Well, i got it 2 weeks ago and the price is definitely at some 3-4K under MSRP (plus all the taxes of course, ours are pretty high) - but still this nowhere near 10 grand...may be its a location thing?

    Is this a good price for a 02 Protege5?

    Was it new? How is it that everyone here seems to have paid about $6K less then MSRP for the new vehicle. I mean i spent quite a while fighting with a dealer and still couldn't get near that

    Great Mazda Pricing!!!!

    Because then when the warranty repairs will be needed (and i have no doubt they will be one day) dealer may (and probably will) blame anything on this replacement. I.e. "this has broken an ionic conjector in a main computer causing an engine shut down every 5 minutes, no warranty repair for...

    Great Mazda Pricing!!!!

    Ahh..so you are a dealer. Here is the question - if i were to come to a dealership and ask your service to replace wiper control for the MPV thing with the variable intermittent speed - would they do it? Would it be any better for maintaining warranty status then doing it elsewhere?

    Wipers

    It has a subwoofer and a roofrack standard (one of them was free, but i forget which:) - but it is made in Dec. 2002 (so it is really a 2002 car, though officially a 2003 model and sold now, confusing:) Anyway, I am thinking of doing it - but won't this sort of thing invalidate warranty? I'd...
