Hi, I have a 2014 2.2D Sport Nav, which came with the NB1 Mazda Tom Tom/Touch Screen System. I have replaced with a Sony Android Auto unit, which is great. I have got the rear park camera connected fine (UK wiring seems different to some guides I've seen - only 2 wires for the camera, VID+ and...

Hey everyone, So I finally put money down on a pioneer aftermarket radio and replacements speakers. I've never done this kind of project before and I am not the most knowledgeable when it comes to wiring... (nervous) I purchased the Mazda Protege5 wiring harness and used crimp butt connectors...

Hey all! I just bought an '07 Mazda6i hatchback - really liking it! One of the issues, however, is that the CD changer is broken. It's not top priority, but I was going to keep it simple and get a salvaged unit to replace it. This unit comes as the whole center console, including the climate...

Howdy all! So, I bought an SD card with maps for my new-to-me 2015 CX-5 Touring, and went to put it in only to discover that I don't have an SD card slot! When I got the car the dealer mentioned ading GPS was as simple as buying the sd card and putting it in and I didn't bother to check (bad...

Hello all. I just bought an 02 protege5 and the more i look at it, the more i find has been done to it. For example, one of the previous owners installed a siren in the grille, the wiring to which no longer functions, but nonetheless is there. The same guy, i assume, put in an aftermarket...

I love my new CX-5 GT, but the stereo sound really is flat and needs help. I have never modified a car stereo before, and I'm a bit overwhelmed at where to start. I will have pros do the installation, but I don't know what I actually need to get a richer, more surround sound experience. I am...

I recently got a great deal on a used Rostra MZ1 Bluetooth kit for installation in my 2012 Mazda5 Sport. The item was pulled from a 2011 Mazda6, It looked like installation was going to be straightforward, but not surprisingly, it didn't work. I didn't receive any installation manuals, and the...

Anyone else think about adding a iPad mini or other 7inch tablet to there car? I've wanted to do this since I got the car, plus I've been watching Soundman's videos on youtube forever. However I do not have the money to do what he does so I figured I'd just be ok with the stock radio and...

I have a 1995 Protg DX 4 dr 1.5L. I will be soon adding aftermarket speakers, an amp, and a new stereo. My Question is: Which 6.5" speakers are you using successfully in your DOORS? The ones I am aiming to buy are 2" depth. I will also be adding a speaker adapter, Metra 82-7500...

Hey guys, So I've had my cx-5 for a while now, and aside from the all the great things I'm still having some inconveniences with connecting my phone to the car via bluetooth and USB. Connecting via bluetooth takes down my battery waay fast, even if I'm not using my phone in any way Connecting...

My radio/cd unit has been in and out for the last year or so, meaning the sound cuts in and out (not the power). I just decided to remove it just to make sure there wasn't a loose connection in the back. When I reconnected, it wouldn't power up at all. I checked all fuses and nothing was thrown...

Stereo turns on, but there is no sound fromt he speakers. It will not accept a CD and the lights 3 button cluster below (A/C, Defrost...) do not work either. DId something short? Can it be fixed easily?

Hello all! This Mazda2 is my first car and so far it is pretty fun, but I want to do some small upgrades to fit my personal style a bit and had some questions. First some background info. This is my first car. I usually ride my bike everywhere, but I got a civil service job that requires having...

I thought I could live with the OEM head unit in my CX-5. I was wrong. In a fit of rage, I ordered a Kenwood DDX790. I ordered from Crutchfield. Since they didn't have any info for a 2014, I took a chance and ordered everything to fit a 2013. Crutchfield recommended the required antenna adapter...

Hey guys, I need help putting in my aftermarket single din radio into the car. I have successfully removed the factory double din radio. I bought a single din radio and another single din pocket to replace the gap. Using the clips/brackets off the factory double din radio, I can't get it back...

The stock single-CD head unit in my 2005 Mazda3 is on its last legs: The CD player is skipping and the amplifier appears to be dying. If you have an unblemished 2004/2005 stock (non-BOSE) head unit in good working order that you'd like to get rid of for a decent price, I would be very...

Greetings all, Today the OEM head unit I ordered, pulled from a 2012 Grand Touring, arrived, and being a nice comfortable 80 degrees out this evening I decided not to wait until the weekend to do the install. Considering we had 18 inches of snow just two weeks ago, and can expect another cold...

I just bought my MP3 this week, and I would like to swap out the stereo (the stock kenwood's volume buttons are bad). So far I am able to pop off the trim, and remove two screws that appear to hold a bracket for the stereo and that small shelf. That little shelf below the stereo is what I am...

Greetings all, I'd like to replace my stock head unit with one from a GT, and have a few questions: 1) Can I expect this to be a plug-and-play situation? I am assuming that in order to keep assembly of the vehicle simple, the wiring harness and connectors would be the same between all trim...
