Replying to: seanakio (Mar 24, 2008 8:30 am) Does anyone know of a source for the little clip-on parts that fit on the back of the headlights? The white plastic piece that allows you to use a phillips screwdriver to adjust the lights is what I'm talking about. I just had my lights replaced at dealer cost since the dust/moisture cover sockets were damaged, and even the new lights come with only one of these little angle drives. The lights will accept 3 more on each side and having them would make adjusting the lights almost easy. The dealer says they are not available as a part, the junkyards around here don't have any, and neither do the body shops. Apparently all the 6 drivers are being good and not wrecking their cars.

| I love my 18" 48 offset with 235 tire width. looks perfect on the car. in fact it can stand it's own against a merc parked next to it with those wheels. | |

I've had the M6 for a week which is loaded GTs and have the following impressions: 1) My car came with 18" wheels and Pirelli P Zeros. Can't see bigger wheels. Probably much more wheels and tires than the power of the car justifies 2) Don't see the big deal about Homelink. Programming seems to be a PITA and I have an extra garage door opener 3) Bose 200 watt stereo is seriously underwhelming. Considering speaker upgrades and an amp as well. This stereo should sound much better than it does. This is probably the biggest disappointment with the car other than the desire for more power |

This forum is amazing and very helpful. Just a couple quick questions..I have a 2005 Mazda 6S. I just turned 30K on miles and my tires are almost shot. I might have a couple thousand left at best. The stock tires are Michelin Pilot's HX MXM4 (P215/05 R17 93V). What are good replacements. Does Michelin build a better tire for the car? Just curious what other people were replacing with..I'm not looking for high performance..just something that will last with a nicer ride. It seems like tires are an issue for this car collectively. Thanks for the help.

Replying to: atc717 (Aug 03, 2008 1:47 pm) My replacements for my '04 6 were Yokohama Avid W4S, in the stock size, but a higher performance tire than the stock Michelins were. Excellent tires IMO. A few things to keep in mind: I'd recommend H-speed rated or better, with a load rating of 91 or greater. Also, even if you don't go for Yokos, there are plenty of other quality choices that are just as good (or better) than Michelins (quieter, longer- lasting, better handling) at a fraction of the price of the Michelins. |

My wife is not satisfied with the sound(she says it's tinny) of the stock unit in our 07 Mazda6 SV I4 auto. There are a number of aftermarket head units that incorporate bluetooth for cell phones and coordinate it with the car's audio system. I saw a good review on CNET of a Sony unit and I think it was about $250 for the unit. I'd be interested if anyone has replaced their stock unit with a replacement head unit that has bluetooth. How well does it work? How much was installation? Any other info would be great. We are not looking for huge sound or anything just a better sounding system. Thanks.
