Well, thats enough photos for now. The standard speakers in this car (non-Bose) are pretty bass heavy, but with a little fiddling with the equaliser it sounds quite good (as sweet as the Fabia). I think a speaker upgrade may improve things a lot.

If a Mazda 3 has Climate Control (most of them now I think since the recent facelift) the display would also show the temperature setting and ventilation legends. An adapter is available to get this display working again after the headunit has been removed is around somewhere.

The Autoleads ISO adapter had the permanent live and switched live the wrong way around compared to my battered Empeg loom, so look out for that.

Yeah. Really happy with how it turned out, its great to have it back in my car. The only annoyance right now is the steering wheel controls don't work, but I am doing a little troubleshooting (in another thread) and quite determined to get it sorted. Will post a solution here when I find it!
