    Another one bites the dust...........

    I think a few of you may know but Id like to make an official announcement of terrible news. Im very sad to report that 5/11/2016 at about 1:30 PM, my beautiful Stormy Blue companion met its demise at the hands of a silver Chevy Equinox. Even sadder is this seems to be a theme here on the...

    It's that time!

    Driving to work this morning I heard some strange noises and felt the car taking bumps weird. Once I got to my destination I confirmed the right rear shock is leaking and done. I got 33,000 miles out of it so disappointing but expected. Time to look for replacements.

    Input on replacement struts needed

    I'm going to try disconnecting the RSB to try to narrow down my knocking suspension problem. It seems fairly likely that the shocks could be totally shot as well as the rubber spring perch so I'm entertaining replacement options. Has anyone used or heard anything about the following options: 1...

    Must stop the knocking!!!

    Where are we at with parts to use to stop the swaybars from knocking? I have the MS3 rear swaybar with Prothane frame bushings and Moog endlinks, front end is stock and it knocks like my neighbor thinks I'm playing my stereo too loud again. Just curious which replacement parts have been tried in...

    What do I need to install the MS3 swaybar?

    I just got a MS3 rear swaybar and wanted to confirm what I need to install it. It did not come with endlinks but it did come with the bushings. As I understand, those bushings will fit into the stock brackets and they look in good shape. Now I just need the MS3 endlinks? I see these, just making...

    Dome light switch switch?

    Not a typo, I want to install a switch to turn on the interior lights in the car. The kids often ask for lights so they can find their seatbelt buckles. I usually open my door again to turn the lights on for them but thats annoying in bad weather or when you want to start backing out of a spot...

    Aux input through SAT connection?

    I just got a really nice Kinivio Bluetooth adapter and I want to hardwire it into the car if possible. Does anyone know if you can hook up audio through the SAT input so I can leave the standard input free for other devices? I found some cheap harnesses on Ebay for an aux input but I cant tell...

    Heated Mirror Retrofit to Sport and Touring Models

    As promised here is the write up! I never had a car without heated mirrors before and frankly, it sucks! After finding out that heated mirrors are pre wired to the door and fairly simple to retrofit, I decided to do the install and post it here for the rest of you lucky owners. What you will...

    Look what some low life did to my baby!

    I am still in shock, this happened while parked on my block. I can only assume they tried to break in but I have nothing in view to steal so I'm not sure why they would target my 5. I dont even know how this would be fixed, I think its part of the door and its obviously not painted in the first...

    Worst Dealer experience ever at Guiffre Mazda in NYC, long rant......

    Just had to vent about what an awful experience I had at Guiffre Mazda in Brooklyn. From new, the car had a windshield gasket that was not seated properly and it finally bothered me enough to take it in and have it fixed. I did not purchase the car at this dealer because of their terrible...

    Cleaning the all weather mats

    What do you guys do to keep the all weather mats looking good? Mine have stains from dirt that wont wash off. I tried car wash soap with a scrub brush but that doesn't do anything. Armor all seems like a bad idea for obvious reasons so what else have you come up with?

    Remote Starter Install DIY

    Just so you are aware, I will try NOT to make this a wire by wire install manual since the wire colors are different from year to year and even posting the wire codes will cause people grief. Additionally, the alarm color codes differ from manufacturers as well. I will accept no liability for...
