Thank you for the backup camera sir Louie Anson Ng

Nice one. Kay Sir Louie din ako magpapakabit once I receive my unit. Question naman, will the parking sensor still work considering na may reverse camera na sya? WIll there be an indicator sa ITC or alarm lang maririnig mo? Lastly, according to Sir Louie plug and play sya--is it really true or may minimal splicing/harnessing ng wires? (Takot lang kasi mavoid yung warranty ng electrical)

TIA

Fear not....With Louie Anson Ng, a Mown3r himself, you're in very good hands, aLbEe sir!!!!

Dear M3 owners,

Questions sana.

Brader, here's my take sa mga questions mo ah. Yun naka-italic ang sagot ko

1. If I'm to buy relocation plates, hindi ba ko sisitahin ng LTO for altering the license plate location? Balak ko sanang relocation plate is yung kinakabit sa tow hook.
- Brah travs said it. Like him, mas gusto ko na nasa baba ang plates kesa sa tow hook. Mazdang Mazda tignan at hindi Evo X wannabe.

2. If hindi magiging problema sa LTO, saan kaya ako pwede kumuha nito locally? There are some that can be bought online however I prefer buying locally sana.
- Kung susundin mo ang suggestion ko, email travs for more info

3. If I would put spacers sa gulong ng M3, would that void the Yojin 3 feature?
- Sabi, kung magkaroon ng problema dahil sa modifications, then Yojin 3 will be voided. Pero why put spacers? Going stance ba?

4. I've read that the DVD playback sa screen would not work when the vehicle is moving for safety but is there anywhere to override this? I mean di ko naman gusto manuod ako habang nagdadrive but of course yung passengers ko would love it specially on long drives.
- There is though for higher versions, di pa ako sure. Meron akong na-download na files para dito pero di ko pa nasusubukan kung paano ang gagawin

5. Is there a separate A/C vent para sa rear passengers? I have not actually been inside the Speed or 2.0R variant kasi walang unit sa showroom when I reserved my unit so I'd like to confirm kung meron.
- None, pero meron sa baba ng front seats. Pero kung overhead vents, wala

6. Does the tonneau cover come standard or will I buy it separately? Honda sucks at offering free accessories so my Jazz never had this when I purchased it back in 2010. I'd like to know if the cover is given as standard.
- Buy it separately nalang unless mabibigyan ka ng SA mo

7. Does this come with durable floor mats or should I purchase after market ones because the standard mats it comes with are cheaply made?
- Di naman chipipay ang standard mats na kasama, pero parang carpet lang ito. I suggest you get a deep dish mat para mas maganda tignan

8. Can I opt to have my tint done else where and get other freebies instead? I like V-kool tints better than 3M.
- Yes pwede naman. Ganito ginawa ko sa akin. Sabi ko kasi sa SA ko, ayaw ko ng tint. Kung pwede nalang, bigyan nalang niya ako ng isang full tank na gas. Wala naman akong hiningi na freebies kundi isang full tank lang

9. Are the dome lights and map lights already using led? If not, will aftermarket LED replacement bulbs void any warranty?
- No, ordinary bulbs pa rin ang gamit. Gaya ng sabi ko sa concern mo sa spacers, pwedeng ma-void once na magkaproblema yan due to modifications.

10. I saw an aftermarket rear camera being sold online. Would that work with the infotainment system and does it require rewiring?
- Yes. Louie Anson installs one. Siya rin ang nagkabit ng rear camera ko

11. I've been reading na meron Nav feature yung M3. Meron ba or wala. According to some early reviews kasi meron, sabi naman ng iba wala.
- By default, meron talaga, pero kelangan mo ng memory card na galing mismo sa Mazda para mapagana ito. Unfortunately, mukhang hindi daw updated ang maps na ginagamit ng Mazda for PH use.

12. Does the roof of the Soul Red Speed come in black? I like how sir travajante's M3 looks.
- No. Have it foiled nalang outside

Pahabol: 13. Would you know what the standard waiting period is? So far I've been waiting for 2 weeks already and my bank has already submitted the purchase order so unit nalang talaga iniintay.
- Wag kang mag-worry. Ako, nag-antay ako ng 1 buwan para sa pagdating ng unit ko. That time kasi, inooffer sa akin ay Pearl White, which is my 2nd choice. Kaso talagang first choice ko ang Soul Red kaya nag-antay talaga ako. Ganito, kung 4th ka sa pila, try mo magtanong sa ibang casa. Ako kasi nung una, dead set akong kumuha sa Mazda Q. Ave. Pero sabi sa akin, 3rd in line ako sa Soul Red Speed o 2.0R hatch. Eh ginawa ko, lahat ng casa sa Manila eh tinawagan ko. Mazda Pasig lang ang nagsabi sa akin na first in line ako sa dadating nilang Soul Red Speed o hatch. Original target ko eh 2.0R hatch lang pero Soul Red, pero lakas makakumbinsi ng gf ko na Speed na ang kunin ko dahil sa Bose sound system at in the long run eh halos ganun din siguro magagastos ko. So ayun, change of plan agad, Speed variant na ang pinalista ko.

The parking sensor will still work pero walang indicator on screen. Actually nakalimutan ko na anong nakadisplay sa screen if you reverse pero walang camera

Plug and play yan. Louie and his crew can hook you up in less than 30 mins.

Hi guys,

Is Mazda like other car makers na every 5 years release ng new generation? and in the middle of that time span is may facelift/refresh? so sa 2017 pa possible facelift ni M3? Im planning to buy a M3 1.5V HB this december (1 year delay LOL) ayoko kasi yung feeling na when i purchased an item eh ilang buwan lang ilalabas na yung updated version hehehe nakakahinayang.

Bro James, please remember that you hooked us up with the plate relocators; guided us with the rims offset; brought the htechs; hooked us with the hobo rims and most of all, you never failed to help us out with all our queries, not only to us but with fellow FB Mz3 club members and Tsikoteers alike. I should be more thankful for all of your sound advices and your kind assistance! Thanks brothah!! 🙏
