How to Modify the Radio on a Mazda 5
You can only do a few thing to the stock radio in a Mazda 5, but adding a amplifier is one of the most significant things to do. The stock sound system in this car does not have an amp, and this alone will make the stereo sound a lot better. You can buy everything that you will need at any car audio store. You can install the amp from the comfort of your driveway in less than an hour.
