An MX-5? You mean a Mazda5 (Mz5?)
What's PRHT stand for?

Uh...Rich? MX-5. Miata. It would make more sense if it was a Miata, why modify a mazda5?

Welcome, by the way.

It's a Miata, but the badge on the car says MX-5. They don't put Miata on them anymore. The PRHT stands for Power Retractable Hard-Top. I like it a lot better than the soft-top. All the benefits of a convertible with the security of a hard-top. Here's some pics.

Virgin1....Since you're a Super Moderator, just wanted to let you know I can't update my User profile. It keeps giving me an error that says "Security Token" is missing. I sent an email to the administrator, but maybe you can tell me how I can fix this. Thanks.

Ah! 'Wasn't thinking. As Vince so aptly put it (or wanted to I'm sure ,) DUH!!!
For what it's worth I had just gotten in from a day of working on both cars and was really tired. Hadn't even showered @ that point.
I sent the same message to the Admins, and a PM too. That started a day or two ago and I can't figure it out either... unless the site has been hacked.
We recently went through a major software update and there are still some bugs... like members not being able to install sig pics and avatars.
If you have an avatar you would like installed for you, I can do that, but the sig is another matter.
Anyway, Welcome to MazdaForum, and sorry for the Momentary Lapse of Reason on my part!

And Vince, people are modding Mz5's all the time. They use the same chassis/powertrain as the 3 so most everything fits.

I didn't mean that you couldn't do it, but that you shouldn't.

Hey Man, to each his/her own.
You remember that guy w/the 6 subs in the back of his 5, don't you? Not my taste at all, but it seemed to make him happy.

Yeah. IMO, though, subs don't count as mods...for something to be a mod, it has to affect performance.
