Re: horn

I am considering adding a high tone horn to supplement the existing low tone Knighthorn fitted to my car. What make and model have other members fitted? Can't find any information on high tone horn by Knighthorn.

Re: horn

According to Sebel horn spec it takes 18amps, not enough to blow the 15amp fuse but don't know how any warranty claim would be viewed if something did go wrong. Increasing cable size won't help but must be at least 15amp rated.

Re: horn

Don't know why you need to access old horn.

Taking the front off is not for the faint hearted, refer to Anchorman's post. Unfortunately you cannot just remove the radiator grill.

Re: horn

Where did you purchase horn from? Amazon £11 for shipping seems excessive and purchasing from sites like eBay there appears to be a risk of buying a fake.

Re: Cruise Control Two "MODE" Settings

I complained to Mazda about the owners manual supplied with the car and they agreed to provide a full version free of charge. They said they don't include the full version as few people read the manual. The full version is available on line, as is a full satnav manual. The trouble I have found is es...

Body damage

Had an Christmas present? on 20 Dec. An idiot in a white van tried to negotiate a gap which was too small and hit the rear off side mudwing.

Did not look that bad but still £2000 tto repair, hoping the paint match, eternal blue is a perfect match.

Re: i stop start

As I understand it the engine restarts by injecting fuel into one of the cylinders, the starter motor is not used. There are details of how this works on numerous web sites.

Re: sign recognition

SoonerV8 Some traffic signs are displayed on the HUD but this is from information received from the Satnav not the camera. Check the CX3 brochure for what should be fitted to your car. The handbook is useless because it describes all options but gives no indication of which vehicles they are fitted ...
