    Replacement HID headlight units for 2012 CX-5?

    That's interesting. Over here in the US, the 1st gen CX-5 got projector low beams, but with regular incandescent bulbs (same as high beam). I replaced the bulbs in the lows in our 2014 with aftermarket LEDs - much brighter and whiter. I don't know if you could swap with US-style headlamp...

    What have you done to your CX-5 today?

    I had heard that because carwashes recycle water, it's a BAD thing to use one when roads have been salted - they concentrate the salt content of the water and actually inject MORE salt into the undercarriage. Not sure if that's true or not. Anyone have any facts?

    2016 CX-5 Sport uneven AC cooling from vents

    Thanks for trying, but this would not cause the symptoms reported. Plus, replacing the blower would be a last case scenario. See above. Not the same symptoms. You might expect that (I would've too), but not actually how it works given my own experience (see prev reply).

    2016 CX-5 Sport uneven AC cooling from vents

    I had the same symptom with my CX-50. In my case it was a freon leak. Once it was fixed and recharged, all was even cooling again.

    Is the Turbo CX-5 noticeably faster?

    No one has noted that the 2014 is a LIGHTER car than the 2025/2nd gen. Thus the 2.5NA in the 2014 is faster than the NA 2025, and the turbo makes up for that (plus a bit more).

    Interestingly, Mazda has done that in the past. We got our 2014 CX-5 in May of 2013.

    Factory backup camera with aftermarket head unit

    It could well be that the video wiring from the camera is reversed. See: https://mazdas247.com/forum/t/oem-backup-cam-with-aftermarket-stereo.123837355/#post-6278643

    Seat covers and dog mat

    The forum is US-owned, and probably 80% or-so of the members are US-based too (at a guess), but we have people from all over the world posting here incl Auzzies, South Americans, Europeans, Eastern Europeans, etc, etc.

    Seat covers and dog mat

    Not sure what's available in the UK, so a bit difficult to answer. I have the Mazda rubber mats in my cars and they're great. Others have Weathertech (but expensive and UK is a ?). There are other brands too (I forget what), but you'll see if you search the forums for "all weather mats".

    2013~2016 Replacing CX-5 Driver and Passenger side mirrors

    No, I understand your decision, it was @devisssss' statement that you should replace the whole thing just because of a mirror glass issue that I couldn't grasp.

    Hmmm, well I'm glad they didn't go with the CX-60/70/90 body, which is is/are a fugly mess IMO. As for the chassis, it's a perfectly fine handling car. Why change a good thing?

    2013~2016 Replacing CX-5 Driver and Passenger side mirrors

    I'm confused here. A replacement mirror normally comes with the plastic carrier already attached, so you just need to unclip the old one and clip in the new (and disconnect/reconnect harnesses if necessary). Are you saying your would replace the whole mirror assembly (fairing, motors, etc)...

    Fuel pump relay

    Possibly, but then the driver's side would be a better choice. Ooops, I forgot these are built/designed in a right-hand-drive country :D (Move on, nothing to see here...)
