    rear wiper blad

    hey all. i've looked in many places but was unable to come up with a good replacement for the rear wiper on my 08 mazda3 5 door. none of the manuals in store list a rear blade for the 3, for any brand i looked at. what brand/size do you use?

    Removing Intake Resonator on Mazda3

    can anyone give me an idea of the difference this would make on an automatic? I myself have the manual, but a coworker has auto, would HE notice the sound too? and BTW, it DOES sound GREAT!

    Accidently added too much oil

    if you have craftsman hand tools it wont matter, aside from the trek to sears to get a new one ! i myself have to do that, as i was in a disparate situation and had to use my driver for something general outside its limits.. worked, but broke the action. oh well, get a new one!

    Cargo mat or Cargo tray?

    the tray is very nice. it comes folded, but in the warmth, it will straiten out. it has a lip all the way around in case anything leaks or spills. its more of a semi hard plastic rather than a rubber, but man, its nice if you do anything other than haul groceries.

    Lift gate / rear bumper

    i did end up getting my mazda3, and i DID find that handle to close it with. but i'd still like to know what this clear bra is. In winter i can see opening the lift gate with gloves on, and sand and salt may be waiting for me to rub/scratch it in. Is this a spray on? or a clear tape/plastic...

    First post. differences vs model yearS?

    Let me rephrase that to get at least one more answer... is there anything mechanical that would persuade me to get an 06 over an 05 or 04 mazda3 becides the fact that it is a year or 2 newer? I want to know if it is worth the extra money to get a newer model. thanks again!

    First post. differences vs model yearS?
