Okay, well Discount doesn't charge extra.

Gives a more accurate balance, because it replicates the forces of the car actually going down the road. I mean, it doesn't cost anything extra, so why not?

The dial will come. I hated it at first too, but now it's definitely pretty cool. It is rather intuitive!

Installed some JL Audio C2-650x's in the rear doors today, along with some sound deadner inside of the door skin. The stereo install is a slow but steady process. I'll do a full write-up when it's complete.

I went from my 04 MZ3 S 2.3 with a 5 speed to my 12 CX-5 2.0 automatic. The MZ 3 isn't fast at all, but it was a fun little car. Even compared to my not so fast MZ3, my CX-5 is indeed, slow. It is what it is.

If it wasn't appropriate, the engineers who designed the car wouldn't have specified it.

Yeah, I made one. ;) This is looking at the pin side of the harness, not the wire side. You'll see what I'm talking about with the wire colors and all when you get in there. LF: white and green RF gray and pink LR green and light green RR white with black stripe and purple As far as which is +...

Yes. I used a pair of the Bose mounting brackets part number KD45-66-A61. The factory Bose door speakers are 9's, so the 8's were a natural match. I used a sheet of ⅛" aluminum that I cut out with a jigsaw to mount the 8" Linears to the 9" Bose brackets.

I'm in the process of doing my install now, and with luck I'll have it finished up tomorrow. I told you about the JL's in the dash, iny front doors I have Linear Power LP8.0's (iny opinion the very best 8" speakers in the world), in the rear doors Kenwood Excelon 6.5's because they're...

The wires are there, the are in parallel with the tweeters and door speakers. You'll have to pop the cover up, and you'll see the tweeter and a blank block off plate. The size of the daah speakers are 3.5". 4's *will not* fit, I tried. I wound up getting some JL Audio C2 3½'s, and they fit...

Hopefully the plugs you used were NGK OE Laser Iridium's, and literally nothing else, not even the NGK Iridium IX's. Was there any oil on the plugs when you pulled them out? And did you inspect the coil pack boots?

It absolutely sounds like you're on the right path! The PCM is located directly on the side of the battery box. There's a cover that you pop off, and then you'll see the wires and the PCM itself. Once you know what to look for, you can't miss it. You may want to invest in a one time...

16 out of 20!

A little trick I learned from the Porsche community. Use some very inexpensive gutter guards from Home Depot, and secure them to the back of your grille with zip ties to keep the garbage out of your intercooler/condenser/radiator! I also installed the OEM fog lights while I had it apart.

Yeah it happens. If you're brave and have the tools, you can fix it where it sits. Jack under the transmission, push the motor up Remove the battery and battery box. This also entails removing the PCM, as it rides on the battery box. After the battery box is removed, you'll see a black plate...
