flush-fitted rear tail light covers? by combustible1

I know other countries have had this since the models inception, instead of the "bulbous" type. Is there now an aftermarket version available for the USA, something that would meet our legal requirements?
 
In other words, where the surrounding plastic for the tail lights would be smooth around the sheet metal, instead of sticking out.
 
thanks.

Problems with air conditioner by jollybeans

I have a 2003 Mazda 6. I remember seeing another Mazda 6 with a similar issue with the A/C, but can't find it anymore. I wonder if other owners have the same problems as me.
 
In the summer when it's hot, my A/C just doesn't cool the car. I can be driving for a long time, but the A/C is just not cold enough.
 
Even worse, now that the weather is cooling down a bit, I turn off the compressor. The two vents on the right and left of the driver seat actually blow out warm air. The other vents would bring in cold air.
 
The Mazda mechanics said that there was no problem with the A/C, but it's really not cold enough...

I too experienced that same problem with my 6. Someone told me to put on the recirculation, and that helped. I don't think Mazda has very cold air conditioners. I came from a very cheap Kia Sephia and the air in that car was very cold!!!!

the heating and cooling system of the 3 has been a big topic of complaint over on that forum too. Seems to be even worse with that model.

Yeah...I just need some confirmation. I was always wondering if I had a faulty A/C compared to other Mazda owners who have been praising the A/C... The recirculation doesn't help that much though... I wonder if there's anything they can do to fix it???

I don't know what else you can do. For the most part, I have my air on high the entire trip, because it never really gets cold. The heat isn't a strong as my previous car neither, but it works okay, not as bad a the air conditioner.

My A/C works fine. I live in Minnesota, but we still get 90+ degrees and humid days. Even on hot days, after a while, I have to turn it down because it gets too cold.

Mazda A/C: by carguy58

I had a last generation 626 and the A/C was cool enough for me. I wonder if Mazda is using a different A/C systems in the 3 and 6 that they previously used in the last generation 626. I think the 626's A/C was good: maybe too good as a matter of fact.

did any of you happen to test the A/C when test-driving? I was just curious because the one I recently test drove was super cold - but it makes me nervous if it won't stay cold over the long haul.
