nice idea !

[@silverbackharley2458]

Great video! Do you have a link to where you bought the kit?

[@nate86diy43]

I searched it from Aliexpress. You search Mazda 3 hood damper

[@benmalka9761]

Thanks for the video. I installed it and the result is like on the left you have a video at 4:53. I could not understand what the reason was

[@nate86diy43]

Hey mate, your welcome, apparently, the image vid that was on 4:53 was wrong, so i reversed the damper resulting like the image vid on the right 4:53, when opening the hood its way smoother. Do you notice when the hood opens it kinda like bounces back?

[@alexismiranda937]

Hey man what did u do with the Silver thing do u pull it off?

[@nate86diy43]

nope, it comes in the package.

[@nate86diy43]

I mean yes, need to pull it off :)

[@Osgood4200]

Good video, can we get more mazda 3 mods? Just used one of your video to install ambient lights in my '18 hatchback

[@nate86diy43]

Thanks mate, glad you were able install one. ;) yes there will be.

[@Wulffe]

Im sorry to say it, but you are installing them wrong. This is the correct way: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nH7Sf513pbpkpLM

[@nate86diy43]

appreciate it man! If you noticed the bracket is different. The bracket you showed me for the CX-5 was designed to be mounted on the hood, not on the struts. I bought mine specifically to be mounted on the struts. So it is not that I install them wrong, it is designed to be installed that way.
