    New CX-5 caring procedures

    Did the 3 have an pearl/mica finish or solid color? Yeah, I can tell with my bare hand as well if the paint needs claying and I damn sure can tell when I've done the work... smooth as a baby's bottom!

    New CX-5 caring procedures

    I've always taken care of my cars, old or new. The new ones get more attention and after 8 years they still both look pretty nice (minus the dings from idiots and rock strikes arggghh). I typically use Klasse All-In-One for the wax and I have applied the Sealant Glaze early on. Regarding...

    Horn change!

    Hi/Low pairs will definitely improve the masculinity of the horn note. I did this to my old Hyundai and felt much more manly afterwards lolol I could then "express" myself with impunity! I think the fun part will be in accessing the horn to replace it ;-) If I understand it right, the grill and...

    New CX-5 Headunit Master Thread

    All I need to say is this: "Why need buy car dvd player ?" lol I'm with babaoriley7 on this, I'd rather stay with known brands and places such as Crutchfield or Sonic Eletronix. As for the stock HU, I'd say it's 10 years old tech wise, my 6 year old Alpine XDA-001 is a decent interface for the...

    Wiring Harness for Trailer instalation

    I do, I'm thinking this weekend to give it a go. I paid$202.02 for the hitch and wiring kit (shipping was free from AutoAnythingO), and given the effort for just the hitch install I'd charge twice that for the total install lol

    2014 cx-5 stereo system

    Judging from the '13 Sport model, they should be pre-wired. Read through this thread start to end, most of the questions you'll have on installation can or should be answered in it with regards to the dash speakers as well as adding an amp.

    Headrest problem

    lololol, I heard a story once about David Bowie, Iggy Pop and Stiv Bators driving around LA in a Caddy (mid 70's) and Stiv took to driving the car with his erect male part. Greg Shaw told me this and he's dead (as is Stiv) so only Bowie or Iggy can verify this tale... Anyway... back to topic...
