First, there has been a bit of recent traffic about door replacement
speakers.  Several of you mentioned Polk MM10a 6 1/2" speakers.  I
have a set of Polk Studio Monitor 10's in the house and love them.
These sound like a nice direction to head.  Will they mount in the
door without interfering with the standard window cranks or are they
only appropriate for those of us with power windows because the
speaker protrude from the door in such a manner that they would
interfere with the hand crank.

Second, having recently had to deal with a damaged front bumper cover
leading me to need to paint a new one, I am probably going to get a
front end mask (bra for those who prefer that label) to keep the
texas bugs off the paint.  I had looked at the Mazda accessories
option (the one that just covers the front bumper cover) but am
inclined to opt for the one that comes up over the headlights
instead.  What kind of comments do ya'll have about the relative
advantages or disadvantages of these two options.

Thanx in advance for any replys.


FYI, I just installed a set of MSW Type 55's w/ 195 50 15 A509s
yesterday.  Its like having a new car again.  Wheels look great.
Had to do something to make for stock alloys to race on.
