I might when I go to get my parking brake fixed. It's not totally worth it, there's a guy at Mazda NAO who's "willing" to get the dealer to fix my problems.
What have you done to your Mazda3 today?

Today was a good day for my 3, took it to the dealership and got the work done on the belt tensioner, got the oil changed, and took it for a good long drive. In the next few days I plan on getting the tires rotated, and do a much needed clean to the interior. I won't wash the car until the construction down the street is finished. EDIT: Well yesterday but it's close enough.

haha you killed the duck?!?!?! that thing was funny!
yeah duck is gone...
I'm really not a stereo guy, but I know it is possible to tap into the door speaker wires to run a crossover/powered sub box or amp. I read about but forget what the adapter is called....
Anybody?
That sounds about right to me, but.... what do I know?
It takes the high output, line-level signal from the OE amp and reduces it to a pre-amp voltage level, ending in RCA plugs, right?
yup... easiest place to tap into it would be right behind the stock stereo, plenty of room for the Line Output Converter back there...

would i be able to add to 12's with a 1500 watt amp from the stock stereo cuz i have the 6 in dash changer and that would be a pain in the A** to take it out and typically its more expensive for a double den cd player
I don't see why not, except that your neighbors may not love you anymore.
The new amp would not be drawing power from the OE HU, just taking a signal from it.
I'm sure this is not the cleanest way to drive other speakers, but it should be fairly easy, cheap and a good way of keeping the integrity of the dash... and steering wheel controls too.
