Here is my take on this. Dealership service departments have this schedule for you to go in and say 'I need a 8K service,' which is basically an oil change. *I don't know how much this is, but I know it isn't $30!! * 1-Should service departments be charging to 'inspect' your car? 2-If anything...

Naw, too much empty space. I got a little pocket uder my radio, soon to be filled with an EQ. Nice radio...I don't know...it just looks too empty.

Great How To, I wish people would stop throwing huge money to dealerships and see how easy it is to do the work yourself. One question, you should lube the calipers/sliders right? Any tricks, ideas or is is straight forward?

'Fog' lights where originally designed to be mounted low to illuminate the ground under the fog line. Factory provided 'driving' lights don't usually do much, if you turn your 'fogs' on and off on a dark road, you will notice that they kind of illuminate the sides, right in front of the car...

The Speed has a single bulb for the headlight and highbeams, the P5s have seperate low and high beam locations. Swap would not work, or need extensive re-wiring!

http://www.bcmazda.com/smf/ is a great start, also please check out toprotege.com, even though its the Toronto club, we have the hook-ups for Canadian parts...or so we would like to think! :) (plus there is always tons on guys selling previously enjoyed parts)

Yeah tripod for exterior shots would be great, instead of sitting the thing on my roof rack :) I have a Nikon 5700. The moving in car shots are very deceiving, Im actually almost crawling around the corners, its just with the shutter set so long it looks like Im flying. So doing a one hander...

I take some backroads to work and back and decided to experiment with camera setings... Goofing around at night too... Enjoy!

I love the nose dive pics!

Its really hard to say it looks like its glued on eally good. I want to take it off and replace it with black leather or something. I should ask someone with the leather interior to have a really good look at it. Maybe they just glued right over top of the factory fuzzy stuff?

Wow, great idea. That looks really pro!

Really? Have you done it?

The only thing planned, and this might be a good idea for most people, is to get either leather or vinyl, black perforated, maybe grey, and replace the factory cloth on the top of the doors. It would be really easy to do, Im just not sure how to yet because the factory cloth is on the door...

I did the A pillars in black, and will do the other upper pieces and the roof liner in black soon.

I know exactly what you mean. Doing the lower half of the dash is project number two. But I would need one from the wreckers first. paint it all up and do the swap. I can't drive around with the entrie dash out for en exteded period of time.

Thanks for the praise guys!! Nope no fogs. One smashed a while back, sold the other to a member who had the same thing happen. I just need to get a piece of mesh that matches the grills, cut into circles and throw them in the openings.

I thought I would share my interior work with you all. To do this I took the door skins off, then remeved the top and bottom halves by unscrewing them from the back. The lower sections when completely sanded down smooth, so the little vains are now gone. Lots of primer, wet sanding and a...
