    Replacing antenna assembly

    That would have been nice to know. Dealer was no help, so I posted here and waited a week with no responses. I didn't want to break the panels or clips so I worked around it with no damage. I would be very easy with those panels off.

    Replacing antenna assembly

    I replaced the antenna today. It entailed removing the three push in panel holders on the rear of the headliner and pulling down the headliner. Removing the side plastic panels that hold the speakers would make this job EASY. I was unable to pop the plastic panels off and didn't want to crack...

    Replacing antenna assembly

    Has anyone completely removed the antenna assembly on a 2008 CX-7? My wife backed into the garage door that didn't open all the way and it damaged the plate and rubber gasket. The small whip didn't break (Cheapest part to replace!) Do I need to remove the headliner to attach the new part? (I...

    PETITION...!!! CX-7 TechPackage - iPod connectivity

    I'm ANTI-IPOD myself. I have Creative Labs 30Gig Zen Vision-M that I love. No problems and $100 less than an apple ipod and does more. (built in radio, more file types it plays, etc.) I'm pissed Mazda didn't put the audio jack in the center armrest box like it has in the CX-9's. That pissed me...

    How much was the Sirius kit? How long did it take to DIY?

    New CX7, Salesman said 6 mths free Sirius, I think he lied ?

    This only works if you have the satelite device connected to your radio as an option. I have an 08 CX-7 AWD GT with Bose and sunroof and called about this today. If the receiver device wasn't installed on your CX-7 from the factory or as an add-on at the dealership it won't work. I was told...

    Help with TSB Please!!?

    Why is this a problem? I like the sensitivity of the auto lights on. I had a Maxima that would take a while before they came on, to the point where you considered turning them on yourself. Who wants to do that? Mine come on when when the CX-7 is in the garage and go out quickly once it's...

    Doors auto locking

    I noticed yesterday that the doors auto lock on my 08 CX-7 GT after opening them with the switchblade key. Example - I press the unlock twice and wait about 3 minutes and the doors will lock. I actually went to open the door and heard the doors lock just before pulling the handle. (I had to go...

    New CX-7 owner

    Bill, I like your tagline. They sure are work keeping clean! I love the color but she's shows every dust spot and streak if your not careful. Just cleaned her up today with 250 miles on her, not incuding daily wipe downs! I plan on removing the dealer name decals as soon as I figure out how...

    Newb question - remote actuated windows on CX7 GT?

    I removed my last post. It worked! You have to double click the unlock first. If the other doors are locked it won't work with a single unlock. Holding it down will drop the windows then open the sunroof.

    Newb question - remote actuated windows on CX7 GT?

    I was wondering what you were talking about also. My 08 GT came with the switchblade keys also. I have the upgraded Bose 9 speaker radio/ 6disc changer/ centerpoint & audiopilot etc and the autodim/compass rearview mirror. I think the window drop feature only comes with the tech package...

    New CX-7 owner

    I just wanted to say hello. I'm a 2008 Black Cherry Mica CX-7 GT owner, just picked it up last night! Wow I love the color. I must have went out to the garage 5 times just to wipe it down and check it out. Didn't get home from the dealer until 10:30pm last night! I've owned a few Mazdas in...
