First decent video I found of the process. No wanna-be cool friends, no absurd music. Actually decently lit. And kudos to whoever that adorable voice is in the end helping you do your job right.
You bet, splash guards are still working great and keeping the Mazda 6 clean for my son now that is his college car.👍 Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
Just got a set for myself and I'm glad you posted this video since the listing said no drilling required, but I still wonder: have you noticed them collecting water or moisture because of the shape? I worry that it'll trap liquids at the bottom and speed up the rusting process, so any insight or observations would be helpful!
I have a new Mazda6 wagon arriving later in the year and am thinking about installing the same mudguards. I have something similar on my current car and do think they make a surprising difference in reducing mud. I'm worried about removing the back wheels though because I'll have nothing but the carjack kit that comes with the car. I certainly don't want to pay the $388 the dealership is asking for though...
Just pick yourself up a $99 floor jack from Harbor Freight or any local auto parts store. This would allow you to easily do this yourself. Good luck with your project! Thanks for watching!
I ended up using double sided tape on the rear splash guards. No drilling required. The downside is they can't easily be removed but I can't think of a reason I'd need to. I also discovered on the 2018+ models, the rear splash guards don't sit flush underneath the car because the rear was changed to all body colour. It can't be seen though unless you look under. I wonder if the OEM guards have the same issue.
Does your Mazda chip easily? Just got one from a friend who sold to me for a very generous price. There are chips all over. So I'm looking at this to help prevent it happening on the sides
I bought some similar AliExpress ones for the front for my Mazda 3 Sedan. I installed them using the factory clips as you done. Do they still hold well for you even at high speeds at highway? I've found the original Mazda OEM mud flaps installation manual and they use u-nut clips and screws instead. I'm worried if they would fly off at high speed only with the factory clips (although they do feel sturdy indeed). Thanks!
@@JDMRightHandDrive - I ordered mine on Amazon for cheap. Waiting for them to come in. A place wanted $140 for buying/install. Do you have to take off the back tires? Also my rear came with like a small plate on bottom, wonder if I need to remove that too
It does help keep the back bumper side areas a little cleaner. I think the car looks better with matching front and rear flaps! But, its up to you, the fronts do the majority of keeping the car clean.
They actually do a solid job preventing everything from kicking up on the side and for those with 360 cameras stop the mirror cams from being sprayed by the wheels

Ive been searching for days for instructions like this. Thank You!
I found a set of Mazda splash guards for $40. They are made in Austria surprisingly. Thanks for the video.

Man I liked the matrix theme!!! Completely caught me off guard! This is a great video as well!
lol, Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for this great video! :) I have already ordered a set! Expected arrival in the middle of May! :D
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the heads up. I just ordered a set.
Me too

Just put in the sd card. The nav should load automaticly. Make sure the sd card is not locked. The little switch on the side of the card.
@@JDMRightHandDrive I was talking about rock chips in the paint
I have a Mazda 3, a little lowered. The bonnet gets chipped a lot.
Fitted mine today to my 2019 nav sport but I used plastic pop rivets on the rear rather than the screws supplied as they are less likely to corrode
Nice, that was a good idea. Mine are still working like a champ. Hope you have as good of luck with yours!
@@JDMRightHandDrive fitted well and nice and secure
@@JDMRightHandDrive do the supplied screw rust?

I have dont 90 MPH without issue. Still working fine 4 years later.
@@JDMRightHandDriveThank you!
Great video man!!!!
Thank you, I’m glad the video was able to help you out!

A bit old of a question, but did they come with the screws and push pins?
May you share whether the wind noise be bigger? thank you.
I did not notice any additional wind noise after the splash guards were installed.
I have a 2018 nissan versa and live on a dirt rd and wondered if splash guards like these actually work.
can't hurt
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching.
Its a shame there are no pre-drilled holes for the rear mudflaps!
Yeah that would have made things a little easier.
Do you know if its same process for cx5? Also wouldnt plastic clips be better for the rear mudflap as well?
Hey there I need help. Trying to remove my 2010 mazda 2 rear mud flap its slightly damaged. Is it identical to the 3 ?
do you even need the rear set?

@@JDMRightHandDrive well i ordered the set so thanks for the knowledge, 15 is better than even 40 on Amazon, hopefully they will fit
usefull video, thanks

Not sure its will be solid for snow
Have driven my car through lots of snow over the last few years. Still working perfectly with no issues. Thanks for watching!
👍
Honestly those are so small I don’t think it’s even worth installing...should be longer, would be more efficient.
better than nothing
