The most corrected bad habit when i joined the late kookie ramirez' racing clinics, proper driving position [emoji6] for seat height just keep a fist length in between headliner and the top of your head, that should be enough to see the front and protects you from hitting the roof in certain situations.

So far kasya pa fist ko sir and im 5'8

Pag nag ddrive ba kayo medyo kita yung hood nyo or mas prefer nyo ang d kita? Sinubukan ko kasi kanina adjust seat height medyo mas maganda visibility pag mataas, yun nga lang halos tatama na ulo ko sa roof ng car 😂

Need this?

Need this?

I want. But i prefer to master my spatial awareness of this car 😁. Medyo mas matagal lang ako masanay dito compared to the ones i drive before

I'm a short person...wala pa sa 5ft...so imagine ang hirap ko para makita ang daan kapag dinadrive ko ang kotse ko. Even with a seat cushion..I still need to adjust the seat height (almost to the max). Sobrang lapit ko rin sa wheel kasi gusto ko medyo nakikita ko ang kalsada. Pinagtatawanan nga ako ng mga friends ko kapag nakikita nila driving position ko. But it works for me. Ahahaha

Maybe in the long run makakapagadjust na ako sa kotse ko.

Tip: always reverse park, esp when there are park stops. The fronts with that exaggerated overhang, esp those w/ lip, are always at risk....Well...except the RingKing.

So long as it meets the minimum RON rating stated in the manual ok lang.

M3 hatch plate light cover has ears similar to the M6 in the vid:


The M3 SEDAN plate light has no ears, as shared here by our good brothah, jet747:


Jet747 further shared:
"You can't pry off the lens on our m3 SEDANs like the m6 in the video. They had to remove the trunk liner on mine to access the bulbs."

Thanks, jet brah!👍☺

I just had the bulbs replaced on my HB over the holidays and the installer just pried the lens off. He had a plastic/rubber tool. Let me know if anyone wants to contact the guy. He does home service in the metro.

Thanks sir trav for the video. The plate light lamp of the mazda 6 is somehow spacious compared to the 3 hatchback. I wish the 3 hb has the same.. I cant insert my finger on the side so I can easily remove the plastic lamp with the flat head screwdriver.

Which panel is that on? If plastic, don't worry. If metal, please look closer & make sure it isn't rust.....
