    Door Stop Covers

    Here are some little add-ons that virtually cost pennies each. Will they help you win awards at car shows? I seriously doubt it but you have to admit, you may be the only kid in your neighborhood who has these installed in your vehicle. Actually, they really do hide some unsightly looking...

    Anyone have side steps on 2017+?

    I drove my front wheels onto my Rhino ramps. It gave me a bit more room to work.

    HELP! Got rear ended, now car won't stop beeping!

    Hopefully, the driver had insurance. It seems as though the "Insurance Requirement" in this country is just a suggestion to some people. Having to pay for "Uninsured Motorist" on our policies is expensive and ridiculous.

    Anyone have side steps on 2017+?

    I purchased my boards on Ebay this past August and enjoyed installing them myself. Also, they fit quite nicely. The quality of these cast aluminum boards is very good. They really work well for my wife and I as we both have relatively short legs. To all of you guys who have installed them...

    Under the Hood Lighting

    I recently completed a little project for those times when I may be away from my garage and would like to have more lighting than just from a flash light. Also, this lighting allows both hands to be free without worrying about how to hold a portable light to shine in just the right place...

    Mounting a fire extinguisher

    Not as long as it stays put in the event of an accident. However, it may be a little tight under the seats and be somewhat difficult to retrieve if in a hurry.

    Cx5 external color

    I have owned several over the years and loved every one of them. It is an easy color to maintain. That's also why I like white.

    Mounting a fire extinguisher

    The reason I mounted the CX-5 extinguisher where I did is because the weight of it is resting on the wheel well. No pressure is being put on the mount itself. Plus, it doesn't take up any space that is better used for cargo. I didn't have that option with my MX-5 due to the trunk interior...

    Rearview camera

    Unfortunately, the CX-5 back up camera does not have trajectory lines that move with the front wheels. None of the Mazda products have them. However, the fixed lines are quite accurate. You can trust the camera to show where your vehicle is in conjunction with those lines in accordance with...

    Mounting a fire extinguisher

    Fire extinguishers are always a good idea. If you don't need one for yourself, you may be able to help someone else. I have one mounted to each of my vehicles.

    Mounting a fire extinguisher

    So true, however, I meant to include it with the original post quoted so as to keep everything in perspective. But thanks for noticing.

    Mounting a fire extinguisher

    And, it will create quite a bit of excitement if or when the "A" pillar air bag deploys.

    2018 GT Stainless Steel Interior Bling

    Yes, 3M tape. All the pieces look good but the ones that are genuine Stainless Steel look the best. The cup holder surround is Matte finish chromed plastic and fits perfectly but the original tape doesn't stick very well. I solved this problem by adding more tape to it and it now sticks to...

    2018 GT Stainless Steel Interior Bling

    I don't like the way the interior "Piano Black" garnishes show the dust and scratche so easily. Also prefer a little brighter interior. The console pieces and the pieces on the doors are genuine stainless steel. I also have the back door pieces in Stainless Steel but didn't take any...

    High Mount Break Light Flasher, Anyone?

    Yes, I installed this very same flasher in my 16 ND Miata a couple of years ago but was wondering if anyone had done the same with their CX-5. Since it's only 5 bucks, I might as well order it for the CX-5. Thanks for getting back to me.

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    Does your "Home Security System" protect your vehicle if it is away from home, such as at the mall, etc.? If it doesn't, see the next paragraph. It would behoove you to purchase a system that doesn't need the internal 3.V battery. Most of these systems are of high quality and the prices have...
