I like the blacked out roof; I was considering doing mine but the color of my car is not really a good match with it.
Also, using a hosting service that allows the picture to be posted instead of a link is more convenient.

Do you mind showing how your's gets out of the trunk to the underside.

It is all factory wiring, I cant see where it or even if it comes from inside the car.

Did you piggy back the original horn power source? Or did you wire the other one seperate. Also, did you use the stock bracket on both sides? I was considering changin mine out as well.

I took out the oem horn and good thing our unit has two bracket to get both installed. I also had a relay installed and no wiring was splice. So if ever I can always put back the oem horn but don't see any reason why. They added style as well on my unit...(hump)

In other news, I saw a CX-5 today with twin hood scoops lol. I pulled beside him at the stoplight pointed at him out the window laughed and asked where the turbo was. Of course he just gave me a dumb look as he sat all back in his seat with his arm over the top of the wheel lel.

Nice. Is drilling required to install?

 

[Chris_Top_Her]

No drilling.

 

[CX-SV]

Nicely done, hood struts look like a good upgrade.

Also, these are an option too, roughly the same price http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Mazd...rting-rod-cover-mount-refires/1473203165.html
I noticed the hood bracket on this aliexpress is more flat. The set I got its stepped (1 step), and they have a thin foam pad on the stepped side of the bracket so it's not metal to metal.. I think this may be to help prevent it from bending the metal if it's over tightened or something. I'm sure it works just as well. Also, I have ZERO hood shake now. Even after the TSB my hood was still shaky if I looked.
