    2016 Grand Touring LED upgrade

    Got to mount the 2 load resistors days ago using 3M body molding adhesive and without drilling holes in the body and yes, it worked well. I Checked the whole set up today and if the hot load resistor had affected it but it didn't.

    2016 Grand Touring LED upgrade

    Thanks for the heads up x44. There is always risks involved whenever you change or upgrade parts in your vehicle and I always put that into consideration. But that's unusual since LED bulbs only draw about a tenth the energy of standard incandescent OEM bulbs so it should not blow the fuse...

    2016 Grand Touring LED upgrade

    Got my goodies today which was very surprising. Super fast shipping from the vendor. And luckily I got some free time so I went ahead and install it. Pulled out the light assembly which was a little bit tricky and hard.. If you're going on this route, pull it out slowly and put something...

    2016 cx-9 grand touring highway speed vibration

    No vibrations at all on mine.. Try to ask your dealer where you got it from to check the wheel balancing. Have them take each one off and check each for some missing weights. That can happen sometimes. Had that problem before with my 2013 CX-9 and pretty much there was a mssing weight on one...

    2016 Grand Touring LED upgrade

    I'll check on it once I'll get my hands on those new LED bulbs but I doubt it. It'll surely gives us the hyper flash because of how it's designed and how the current flows to those OEM bulbs. Had a conversation with a local accessory dealer here in my area last week and he tried installing an...

    2016 Grand Touring LED upgrade

    I have a pair of 7743s and load resistors coming too. Hopefully I can be able to install it early next.

    Recommendation for winter wheel size

    Those are nice looking wheels. I'm excited to see some pictures in your CX-9 when you get it mounted.

    any 2016 owners get the mobile start app ?

    Always nice to have an OEM accessory in our vehicle. I do hope they will fix this lag in the near future.

    2016 Grand Touring LED upgrade

    So have you shopped around on which LED turn signal bulb and load resistors to buy? It's a 7443 bulb so I'm assuming it functions as a park light too.

    2016 Grand Touring LED upgrade

    There will still be a tiny cut in the OEM wire when spliced using the quick wire T tap included.

    any 2016 owners get the mobile start app ?

    I'm shopping for a remote starter as well but definitely not the mobile start app from Mazda. Besides the poor reviews ,way too slow to respond and performance, it's way too expensive. A great contender in my shopping list is the Fortin Evo-Mazt1. Surely within the budget for $129 and I can use...

    2016 Grand Touring LED upgrade

    The load resistor I was referring doesn't require cutting too. But it has to be connected to the OEM wires via the included hardware that makes a small cut to it so that current will flow thru the resistor before going to the bulb. My concern is as soon as there's a tiny cut in the OEM wires...

    2016 Grand Touring LED upgrade

    It's a 7443 rear turn signal light bulb as listed in the manual. But a little bit warry though about the tapping that will be done for the load resistors as this might affect any warranty.

    2016 Grand Touring LED upgrade

    Got to check what kind of bulb do we have as OEM. If it's 7440 or 7743. The application of load resistors to the 7443 is kind of tricky than compared to the 7440 as there's only 2 wires. Will check the manual when I'll have the chance.

    2016 Grand Touring LED upgrade

    Same here. Still doing my research and on the market on what's best. Specially it involves adding a load resistor to have the rear turn signals blink normally.

    2016 Grand Touring LED upgrade

    We have the same Philips 921 LED reverse light cubanomx. I don't know why mine seems to be brighter for you than yours. But definitely very white bright at night. Love it.

    The same here.. The vehicle has to be in motion in order for it to work. Pretty much accurate all the time I tested it for a day.
