Hey guys, I've owned my '07 Mazdaspeed 3 for about a year now, but only am now deciding to hop on the forums.

I'm looking into getting more involved in the Mazda community that we have here in the GTA, and am super hyped to be apart of the Mazda 3 family.

I've done a little bit of modding since i bought my car,(It was bone stock) but nothing major. Even though I've been through most of the struggles of CEL's, broken bolts, rusting hardware and questionable engine noises, me and my MS3 are as happy as can be :)

It's a true red '07 Mazdaspeed 3, aesthetically wise, mostly stock. If you see me driving around, shoot me a wave and ill send one back. Thanks!

If you wanna get to know my car a little more, i've provided a mod list and some pics below:

Looks good, and thanks for the idea of where to put my tablet, one con is my heated seats , but I think the position is best, nothing bright up high to distract while night driving

Edit: and that is the perfect example of a run on sentence!

Haha no problem,i gotta say though, it's not as easy as it looks. i spent about 2 weekends in my garage and used 2 different Dremels to cut up the dash in order to make everything fit nicely. As of today it's still not finished, i always find a rough edge or an ugly cut here or there and pull everything apart again. Well, i guess there's always room for improvement
Yeah i agree the position is great, it's perfect while driving at night. The only downside i find is the bright white music menu tends to be an annoyance at some points during a night drive. Turing the brightness all the way down helps a lot.
Damn, the heat seat switches are a total bummer for the kind of thing, oh well, if you ever figure it out, send me a message/pics! It'll be awesome to see someone else with a tablet in their 3. As far as i know i'm the only one..
