Hi Guys,

Awesome forum, Canadian specific I love it.

2005 Mazda 3 sedan 4 door stock stock stock... everything - except upgraded rims & tires (summer) I will post pics when I find them. We bought this car brand new and it's been the daily driver but we haven't really had the money to do anything to it, until now. Mostly aesthetic upgrades are planned, not too much engine stuff - just quality improvements....
I've gotten a lot of ideas from current members here!

I just bought a second car and hubby and I have officially switched, he drives the 2001 Grand Prix GT coupe

Planned....
Cold Air Intake
Sparkplugs/wires

New tires for the rims
In Dash NAV/DVD player - Looking at the Pioneer AVIC-D3 if I can find a shop to do the by-pass
Leather wrap cover for steering wheel hopefully with red stitching with matching shift knob
Black "carbon fibre" or looking overlays for dash - maybe cover-up/remove stock clock/lcd display
Matching pedals with "dead pedal" if I can find one!
Window Tints

I think that's it for now, obviously this will take a while and with another car that needs "upgrading" as well........well I'm not rich! lol

dentinger - thanks I didn't know that

There was one on Ebay and someone on here was selling one $139 with everything. I talked to an installer at futureshop this weekend to get an idea on prices and he said they can't even get the double din and I should source it myself!

Brant & QEW, and you?

That's for the dash kit

The unit is $1300 at 2001 audio video and $999 at future shop, I found it on amazon.com for about 550 USD (sorry I should have read the post better). I'm still shopping around for prices, it will be a little while before I do it since it will be that + remote starter + alarm + deck & speakers for my grand prix so I should be able to work some sort of deal for all that stuff, 2 cars, same time.

Check out Audio Heaven, top notch service and products!

haha ya, i would too.,
i had my subs installed there, and when my friend (who works at Keiths stereo) was doing some work for me, he said that futureshop did everything he was told NOT to do.
