Just open up the fob like any other remote and pop in the new battery. Nothing special

I went to Mazda dealership today. Drove the Mazda 6 6AT and the mazda 3i 6mt. I must say both are great cars. The in person looks fantastic and the 3 felt nimble and fun. Very well optioned in base/low trims for both of them.

coming soon to a theater near you...

The mic i used was a POS sony mic.
- I'd recommend some CRAZY good wind sock for the thing. Or whatever you call those fuzzy things that cover mic's.
- I put the mic Inside the car. Anything outside gets killed by wind noise.

P.S.
OH and for your GoPro, you need to buy an attachment which allows audio-in.

That's what I was worried about with the whitelines, as i read a few issues about them before. Strange for such a reputable company to have issues like this.

on the mic. I saw before a forum member had the go pro mounted on the quarter window door or hood, but ran a cord to the mic mounted between his exhaust pipes. Sounded fantastic.

Did you catch air over the jump?

No dice... the jump upsets the ABS computer if you leave the ground.

Thus, on the landing... ABS is applied and you skid off without braking into the grass.

So no, air was purposefully not caught.

Whiteline Anti-Roll bar update

It's now uninstalled and the OEM bar is back on the car.

They have found another vehicle's bushing which has the appropriate lip to keep the sway bar in place.

Also they will be sending me a brand new Front Sway Bar because i had to drive "bushing-less" for 300 miles, with the bar rattling over every f*ing bump.

So A+ customer service Whiteline. C- product design
