Parts are in. Just need to coordinate going to buddy's place to do the work. New: Struts (OE), mounts, boots, sway bar end links, lower control arms, as well as new bolts and nuts for the LCAs, and stuff for the struts.

Ah that was it. See proof you can have a commander knob AND a real hand brake.

Maybe you're right. Coulda swore some late model 2015's had that too, but could be wrong.

Interested to hear what they found?

Have heard nothing but bad things about the Monroe quick struts. I opted to just go with OE Mazda struts for mine. Still waiting for them to arrive.

I'm quite certain I've seen models that still had an actual hand brake and commander knob which led me to think it was a 2015 since the 2016 introduced the electronic parking brake and such.

1/2013 build date on sticker for mine.

Oh wow, I thought it was in the 2015 model they started shifting (heh) to the straight line shifter. Didn't know it was in the 2014's. Good info to know. I also think the 2015 had an early version of the commander knob too?

You can find deals like this all the time places like CDKDeals, G2A, etc.

Yeah it was mainly an early model year (gated shifter) problem that got a revised part. Later models to my knowledge don't have an issue. 2015 might be less susceptible as well depending on when they started putting in the revised switch. I don't remember off the top of my head. I could be wrong...

Its common for early model years, mainly 2013, 2014, 2015.

Ordered parts, including new bolts and nuts for all the LCA connections since those were rusted badly. Will let you know how that goes but will probably be a couple weeks before I can do the work, and not expecting the parts until next week sometime.

Hyper 212 has just always been that right combo of great over stock heatsink upgrade for not very much $$$. Fan Control is awesome. I'm using Aquasuite right now since I have a couple of their products in my rig, but Fan Control can do a lot of the really cool functions Aquasuite does, but for...

Here's my current. Could probably squeeze some more out of the 5900X if I voltage tuned it again, but I hated doing that and just put it back on PBO + some minor tuning. For the 3080 Ti, the 16277 was stock, and the 17594 was with a 114% power limit, +120 core, +1000 memory overclock. I...

Wow, when my switch went out on my 2014, all I did was go to Med Center Mazda and order the revised part and it fit no problem. It was sort of a pain to do the work myself since you have to tear the center console out, but in the end glad I did the work myself. My car has the gated shifter vs...

If you can take advantage of dealer financing when they run 0% interest or 0.99% interest deals (Mazda did this several years ago), and you can take the cash you would have spent to buy the car in full and instead even just throw it into a 4-5% HYSA or some other better investment avenue like...

Ah OK. I missed that. Thank you for that.

So it sounds like you might have experience with this shop. Not sure how to interpret this. Seems like they want me to put in the order before they'll actually tell me what shipping costs.
