The 360 view is worth it just to protect the rims from the curb. Also good for tight parking!

Our body shop noted some of these trims are one use only designs and you will/may be unsuccessful in removing without breaking tabs etc. bottom line is we had to pay for new chrome trim pieces.

Although our mountains here on the east coast are no comparison to N. California mountains, but I will say that the sport mode makes a huge difference in curvy mountainous regions, affording you more control. The normal, non-sport mode, to me, seems to be highly biased toward optimizing mpg...

I would pay attention to wheel weight. Each inch in diameter tends to add weight, as does width. Take a look at the specs for the BBS SX 19" x 8.5"= 13.6 - 14.1 kg 20" x 9.0" = 16.3 - 16.9 kg I have not found a definitive weight for the stock 19" x 7" Mazda wheels [UPDATE - I found a reference...

I purchased a metal sill protector from eBay for the vinyl, and added clear protection on the white rocker panel, 3M Paint Protection Film. The eBay piece attaches with 3M double sided tape. The trick is to use a hair dryer to warm the adhesive, and use much more tape than that which comes...

Another potential, though probably expensive way, is to cover it with PPF like film. I had all the Piano Black exterior pillars on my wife's car covered with 3M PPF. Very good decision. No scratches, even after she runs it through our local car wash

You chose exactly what I think most people would choose. The greenish earth tones are coming back in, as you can see by the PPG color of the year Benjamin Moore color of the year Sherwin Williams color of the year Pantone color of the year, but they have always differed from the pack I am...

Did not notice that on our 21. When I get home I will take a look.

Can you just use the inserts? I have done that before, but no idea about the construction of these RainX wipers. Main concern is 26 seems too long for the Gen 1 CX5, and you may be longer that windshield allows, and it may interfere with sensors in the windshield if you have them.

Our 2014 had to have the rears replaced about 20-25K miles, I cannot remember. We since gave the car to a family member, and there is about 55K miles on it, and rears need replacing again.

On my RL, I found the stock Advics pads to better than akebono ceramics I used to replace. I did love that car as heavy as it was.

A little off topic here, but if you were to not go with Mazda parts, are there manufacturers you would go to. On another board for another car, Brembo, Centric, Centric Cryo was mentioned as was Centric and Akebono ceramic (?) pads. Not looking for the go fast drilled, slotted stuff, this is...

So now the question is how to prevent this from happening again? I am looking for some kind of spray that might help, apply every month type thing. I have ordered some Honda 4019-2317 rodent tape to protect my wife's 21 CX5, since she is over there all the time, and is worried she could be...

Auto, less $1000 deductible

He has everything with Amica. I think it may have been homeowners, but not sure. Will ask when I see him.

The car is still at the dealer, about 10 days now, and the estimate is higher than $6K Fortunately insurance was able to cover under vandalism, less a big deductible.

My son lives in suburbia. His 2019 CX5 Signature has been disabled by rodents. Dealer sent video of damage and the cost to replace damaged wiring harnesses is in excess of $6K and counting. Car is still at the dealer.

I guess I would have to see how the panels work to tell you. The soft cargo liner is anchored to the rear seat backs with lots of velcro, and the head rest posts, although the cargo liner is not moving even if you remove the head rests, that is how much velcro there is. Velcro is then used on...

The 2022 has a higher position in the cargo floor? Where is the info on that, and I wonder why they would bother to change that detail. Parenthetically, we use that part number on our 2021 Signature. We haul planting materials from time to time and it helps. You still have to cover the...

Nice car. Our son has a 2019 Signature in Machine Grey Metallic. Beautiful color. I would strongly suggest PPF due to the stone damage over time. He did a ceramic coating, but that does not help with chips. The minimal job is usually what I call full front face, front bumper, partial hood...
