(y) for Silver. My last 5 vehicles including both 2019 CX-5 GTR (first was rear ended & totaled) were silver. Great for "looking clean" when dirty. Gray looks nice when it's clean but my wife's previous gray Toyota van really showed scratches. To each their own. I agree you have to see a...

This brought back memories of a post I saw somewhere of "crazy" things mechanics have seen or been asked to do. While having her tires rotated, an older women asked the mechanic to put the wheels on so the valve stems were on the bottom because it's makes it easier for her to put air in the tires.

FWIW, I have had salespeople tell me this after I literally saw new model year vehicles on their lots. Take those "we won't have new model year vehicles until" dates with a grain of salt. Granted these are unusual times as far as vehicle availability is concerned.

I bought a set of hood struts for $30 on Amazon with free 1 day shipping. Easy install & work great.

As I mentioned above, it appears the pictures for the shelf are incorrect on all the parts sites other than Mazdaswag, which is what the OP included. Mazdaswag also has a pdf of the installation instructions which gives better info on installing & removing the shelf. The picture shown on the...

with some pictures too please.....

What trim level CX-5 do you have? If it doesn't have Nav with the SD card inserted, that feature is not enabled.

I see the same thing if I google that part number the OP included. I also printed the installation instructions on Mazdaswag website. The OP picture is what's included in the installation instructions & has a zippered cover. Other Mazda websites show the above red picture which is actually of a...

I had basically a similar item I purchased for my 2011 Golf TDI (may even still be somewhere in my garage). I found it to be very useful. I will have to look into this for my CX-5 GTR.

I use the same settings and have not found a way to get the lights to come on automatically with the wipers. PA has the same headlight on with wiper on law & I'd say the majority of drivers don't abide by it. I've personally never seen it enforced. I just conditioned myself to switch the...

Add me to the list of those who'd take the silver wheels over the black wheels. 2 years in I'm very pleased with the Mazda OEM Canadian floor liners for the reasons stated above. Also because of how they fully cover the dead pedal. I also prefer the way they look.

Yeah, I had them in the headlights of my 2000 Passat. They worked fine being included that way. I can't say I'm overly impressed with how effective the fog lights on my 2019 CX-5 GTR work.

Agreed. I also enjoy testing the salesperson's knowledge by "playing dumb" & seeing how much misinformation I get. There's a big difference between a salesperson needing to check on something they're not sure of vs. being fed a load of nonsense.

I agree that a salesperson may not know every minor detail about a vehicle. I do expect that as mentioned above that a salesperson selling a CUV which is Mazda's best selling product should know if said vehicle is available in FWD & AWD. I, as a consumer with the same access to the internet as...

And they sell cars for a living? Know your product.

I have the same discussion with my wife about the dishwasher.......;)

I believe that's how I did it. That's what's illustrated in the pdf installation instructions for the front mud flaps. I think I was just a little overly aggressive when I pulled off the drivers side. As I mentioned above, once I saw the backside of the trim piece as you show in your pictures...

You need to remove that plastic piece you broke to install the front OEM mud flaps. I did the same thing on the drivers side. Fortunately my local dealer had one in stock & as you pointed out it was relatively cheap. Once I saw how the inside clips were configured, I was able to pull the one off...

My 2000 VW Passat incorporated the fog lights into the headlights.
