Hook up Rear Speakers? by
Raover
I just bought a 2006 MX-5 that came with the standard multi-function stereo.
I noticed there are two small grills between the two seats in the rear that
look like they may have been for the Bose stereo speakers. When I turn the
fader to the rear, no sound comes out. Does anyone know if a couple...

Ebay Altezza Tail Lights by
brg
Driving behind my NA the other day I could not believe how wimpy and dim the
brake lights were.
Does anyone have an opinion about the Altezza style tail lights that are
sold on Ebay for about $75-80 a pair?
Do those lights use the existing electrical harness or do you have to cut
the wiring to...

Time for New Tires on the NC. Ideas? by
John McGaw
Well, the second set of Michelins on the '06 Sport has come to the end of
its useful life at less than 28K miles. Obviously pretty bad tread life. It
seems providential that the government wants to give me $600 so that I will
feel stimulated. A free new set of tires would be stimulating enough...

Pads/rotors by
miker
I was just in getting an oil change and the dealer told me I needed new
front pads and rotors. (96 Miata with 70k miles on it, street use only)
Now I've had no noise, squealing, fading, pulling, any brake issues at all.
I can understand it being time for pads, but why would the rotors...

CW values for the NC by
Bruno
I've been reading an article on cars and their CW values and what it
means for efficiency. The article is in German but I thought the figures
given for the MX-5 may be interesting so here it goes.
Top down: 0.45 cw
Soft top up: 0.39 cw
Hard top up: 0.37 cw
At 150 KMPH The Hard top uses 0.3...

'Top Hats'value? by
Chris D'Agnolo
Anybody have a clue what a used set of 'top hats' (I believe that's the
term) should sell for? I've got a set available and a person interested so,
I'm just wondering. Is there an approximate value (relative to new) like 50%
or 33% of what new would cost that is considered a guideline?
My guess...

Tasers by

Remember awhile back we had a fairly lively discussion about the use / over

issue in his Car and Driver editorial. He even discusses the Austin Texas
video and the one (I believe in Colorado?) where the guy tries to get the...

Rubbing from Instrument panel? by
Christopher Muto
Hi All,
I hear a rubbing that seems to be coming from the instrument panel. It
changes with the car speed, not the engine speed. My thought was that it
could be a speedometer cable gone bad but the speedometer registers smoothly
and I would think that if the cable was faulty then the...

'99 MX-5 Antenna With a Mind of Its Own by

A CD got stuck in my CD player in my '99 MX-5. After removing and replacing
most of the fuses under the dash, the CD finally freed itself, but the radio
panel light stayed on when the ignition was switched off. Removing the
dashboard lights fuse under the hood solved that, but now the antenna...
