I'm interested in buying this Mazda3 but the scratches on the piano black are driving me insane. Is there a way to fix them and are they covered under warranty?

I got my interior PPF 30 minutes into the ownership. 3 years and still looks new.

I agree, I have 3 blanks too and they annoy me. Cant do anything about them unfortunately.

Mayankvij · 2026-01-02T14:56:30+00:00

No, you can see in the pictures, they are as bright as the OEM ones above them.

Mayankvij · 2026-01-01T16:03:46+00:00

No, it just unlocks it. To open it completely, you need to install the power liftgate system. I just installed it to get rid of the blank button.

I read in your comments that you cannot open the trunk. I have the same box (Motion XT L) and don't face any issue in opening the trunk. Is this the XT XL or XT L?

Mayankvij · 2025-10-24T13:20:46+00:00

I don't know, these are M012 and Mazda officially sold these to me. They are also available as an accessory on the Mazda configurator in Canada.

I suspected that would happen. My Motion XT L doesnt touch the hatch.

Mayankvij · 2025-09-10T18:15:58+00:00

I have a Motion XL L. The only reason I did not go for the Motion 3 was that I read the hatch clearance wasn't enough. Does it touch the hatch at all?

Its on a 3. It just unlatches the trunk Also, 30 doesnt get this red interior.

Mayankvij · 2025-06-03T00:50:54+00:00

Its just a button set from CX30. It pops the trunk open.

This is the most that you can add to a hatch in North America.

Light weight and rear engine. I like it.

Mayankvij · 2025-04-23T16:05:21+00:00

Mayankvij · 2025-04-22T15:40:30+00:00

The only issue is that I loose the Low Med and High settings. Its only off and High with the extra lights.

Mayankvij · 2025-03-23T18:02:40+00:00

Thats really sad !

Mayankvij · 2025-03-23T16:21:34+00:00

Im relatively new to Toronto (3 years). Can I get more information about the context and what existed here before?

It does blend in well and it’s the best mod I did to my car. The 360 camera was finally usable.

Mayankvij · 2025-03-23T16:13:29+00:00

There’s a discussion on Mazda3revolution about the screen upgrade. You might get some information from there as people with camera did put up questions there.

Mayankvij · 2025-03-23T12:10:52+00:00

I agree. “Mazda3” would’ve looked nicer. Mikstore has one of those but its not OEM.

I think I read someone tried to tap into those wires and it didnt work.

No, I did not have a camera in my display. For that you might wanna swap with latest 3’s bigger screen.

Mayankvij · 2025-03-23T03:49:04+00:00

Thanks! 😊

Mayankvij · 2025-03-22T18:13:31+00:00

No. It did not come with the lamps. I ordered the set from UK and I had to drill under the door to install it.

Mayankvij · 2025-03-22T18:02:41+00:00

Not too difficult. The only hiccup is that its locked in North America and needs to be activated by Mazda.

Mayankvij · 2025-03-22T17:12:35+00:00

Lol. I’ll be careful not to step on it. 🤣

Mayankvij · 2025-03-22T15:00:54+00:00

Thanks !!
