I meant the receipt for purchasing the struts. But you never know if they'll try to say you installed it yourself so no warranty etc.

So what looks better and is more desirable? My dad's got a mazda 3i sedan with 5 spoke 16s on it. I've got a set of '03.5 Protege5 16s in the garage collecting dust. I'm going to be painting the P5 wheels a darker gray and was thinking I'd either sell them or swap with my Dad's Mz3 wheels and...

yeah, just that there are no kingpins in strut front suspensions. ;)

sounds like your wheels are the wrong offset. That's your first area to address.

Holy 4x4! I've got MSP springs for cheap if you need a little help there. Those wheels still look good though.

think so. They also specify you send a copy of your receipt for service work

struts are the same. Springs may be slightly stiffer (tiny amount) and may make it slightly higher. Take the rear spring pads out and it should even it out.

Yep, The clamping wire thing didn't fix the problem. I also have already replaced the switches with those from an '03.

I knew I'd get a few with that one. Yes, everything but the MSP is slow, but some of the uniqueness of the MP3 is nice.

biggest difference? The wagons don't look like crap.

do it yourself then. Get the little bleed bottle for $5 from the auto store, or make one, slightly crack the bleed valve and pump the brake. You'll be fine and it'll be done right.

A quart a day? Did you notice the thick blue cloud behind you everywhere you went? Just go to a different shop and have the headwork done. No need to buy a new one just yet.

Go buy a truck and stop taking your car to the desert! ;)

I'd say go with the Tokico-blue rears if you EVER want to upgrade the rear bar. The increase in strength looks significant. For the fronts, the jury is still out on something that is dropped over 1.4". My gut says go with the blues for anything dropped. I'm wondering how NEW KYBs would fare in...

Feel free to influence! That's the rear bar right? I totally agree that the rear is useful if you are upgrading the rear bar. The rear blues have longer bodies though so there is less suspension travel in the rear over the OEM tokicos (same exact part number as the blues). It's worth it to...

you can take the two raised bars off easily. A few bolts and some screws. It will look like this when you are done. The raised "parallel" rails will still be there. You'd need some flat plastic plates to make them look complete. Taking the rails off requires dropping the headliner and...

I guess some posts got deleted or something. Take a pic of the part you are looking for. Am I missing something? If it's just to change the light of a bulb to a different color there are a lot of easy ways to do that. I used the little red "bulb condoms" to change my Miata's guages to red. If...

Short question - why?

One size fits some. They had 3 sizes last time I saw them. Get the tape too. I'm sure the bulb isn't too large.

Go to walmart or your local auto parts store and they sell rubber bulb covers in red blue green etc. They also sell red taillight tape that should work to make a red lens. Great sig!
