Thanks for the info. I did a search but never thought to search for 'footwel' spelled incorrectly!

Anyone have the 'welcome light' kit installed?

I've just moved from a Mini Cooper S to the CX3 and one noticeable difference is how dark the CX3 cabin is at night. The Mini was equipped with various LEDs dotted around that gave a low level glow to the door pockets, footwell etc. Does the Mazda welcome light kit stay on whenever the headlights ar...

Re: USB stick size and format?

Thanks for the info above. My preference is certainly to go the USB route rather than iPod, so good to know something works pretty well. Is there any particular folder structure you need to stick to?
