New P5 owner

passenger side isn't too much harder to get at, just wiggle some small fingers in there in front of the windshield washer resevior and you should be okay.
I found that it was easier if i unplugged the dust cover and white connector from the black one.. mounted the bulb on the black thing, locked it into the housing, then reattached the white connector and dust cover and it works!

I hate those stickers. Use a heat gun or hair dryer. It'll peel right off.
That's what I did.
oh the dealer sticker? I called them when I was about 30 minutes away and made them remove it. The guy told me that it's not a strong adhesive at all, wouldn't have hurt the paint, but that sticker was obnoxious and I think he just told me that so that I'd leave it there forever. I told him I don't mind advertising for them because I had a great experience at the dealership (Cape Cod Lincoln Mercury Mazda) and asked for a license plate frame that I now have mounted in the front.
 
Wow, holy back-from-the-dead!
Those fuckers at CC Mazda kicked me out when I went there car shopping!!
All I wanted to know was how much payments might be on a new Mazda3!!
They looked at me like I was from another PLANET!
AND...I had my wife and kids with me in our SUV, but I wanted to estimate a trade-in for my s*** box that was at home. They refused to use an estimate or use the KBB value just for the purpose of the scenario!
At this point, the "salesman" and I went into the managers office. They were ridiculously confrontation and stubborn. I was escorted out from the managers office!!!
(nuts)
I call MNAO and they were like, "sorry all dealerships are independently owned and operated". So I was like, "but you guys gave them these "awards" for Customer Service and whatnot, so you must be collecting info somehow or else all those awards and certificates are BOGUS". They took a complaint from me and sent me to "Friends of Mazda" who sent me to ******* Norwood (MAZDA GALLERY) or some s*** like 80 miles (literally) from here. s*** was not much better there either. I called ahead to ask about what they had. Salesguy said they had a few P5s there. LIE!

When I get there he sez "I'll go out back and bring it around"
Me and the wife and kids wait for over 20 minutes for him to show up. (seriously)
AND he drives around in a brand new 3. I was like "thats great, but I can't afford that, what happened to the one you told me you were getting?"
He sez, (no lie) "Oh, u don't want that one", I almost fell over!
(bang)
I test drive it anyway cuz I'm like WTF, it's here and I luv it. We get back and then he keeps trying to find ways to trim off $$ to get me to bite on the new car but I keep telling him it's not an option that he's not in the right price range. Then we get in to a stare down where I tell him look, I dragged my family out here under false pretenses cuz he told me he had used P5s and he now won't show them 2 me! Manager joins us blah blah I walk out.

0 for 2 (deadhorse

Found a listing for a white P5 at Saturn of Raynham in the Autotrader or somethin'. I call up and they're like, "We just sold/traded it to a wholesaler. Sorry". Later that day, they call back and say, if u want to come see it, we put our deal with the wholesaler on hold. Geez!
So, I Haul everybody all the way back out there again.
What a difference at the Saturn dealer! Much nicer, playroom for the kids, etc..
But they would not budge on the price. Then I had to come back again bcuz it takes like a whole ******* day for them to title or register it or somesuch.

BUT IT WAS ALL WORTH IT!!! I luv my P5! (first)

ALSO:
My sister went into that Cape Cod Lincoln/Merc/Mazda dealer for some repair there and they messed that up, broke some other s*** and tried to charge her for it. She refused and a fight almost broke out (fight)when her boyfriend stepped in.
 
hehehe wow we were seniors in high school!!! things certainly have changed since then...i.e. you live 6 hours away and i have a protege too :)
