    Why do my headlights suck?

    I'm not sure but the photo may be upside down? Lol My headlights are horrible. There's a big dim spot towards the passenger's side. Is this likely an adjustment issue? I have the factory halogen projectors with standard hella replacement bulbs. Please help.

    Does anyone know the procedure for changing the light responsible for illuminating the gears directly next to the gear shift lever? I've easily snapped out the circular panel that surrounds the lever so I can expose the light. The light itself is in a recessed area, and I'm not sure exactly...

    WTB: passenger side marker light AND wiring

    A few days ago I noticed my side marker light was missing on my Protege5. Then I had the pleasure of discovering that it had been ripped out causing an electrical short (it knocked out my dash lights and brake lights, that was fun!). So I electrical taped things back together so I can not be a...

    Flashing CEL but runs smoothly

    Greetings, I bought my 2003 Protg5 about 3 months ago, haven't driven it much due to an unfortunate Bambi incident though, so I'm about 1,000 miles in. A few days ago, my CEL came on. It had been on before, but had gone away on its own as they often do, so I didn't think much of it. Then...

    Protege5 trunk light does not turn off after closing trunk door

    Hi. I searched to no luck for Protege5 trunk light switch (not the one right in the light assembly itself). Thought maybe someone ran into this problem before. I just got my car back from the body shop where they replaced my back door and did some other body work after I got rear ended. So I...

    Such slammable doors!

    Hey guys! I noticed that the doors of our P5s are extremely light. People have actually apologized for slamming my doors extra hard because they didn't expect them to be so light. I'm used to heavy doors, as my parents have an Acura TL and an RX-8 and a Maxima and a BMW before that. Even my...

    4wd light

    Driving down my street on the way to work this morning, the 4wd light on my dash was flashing. (Wonderful job on the streets, DPW.) We had a very light winter last year, so this might be the first time I've driven it in snow covered streets. I'm assuming that the flashing indicates that the...

    Question about Security light on the dashboard

    Should the dash security light (icon of car with lock on it) be blinking all the time when the car is off / locked on a Touring model, which does not have an anti-theft system? I did a search and found one old thread relevant to this, but thought I'd see if there are any other opinions. Thanks!
