Hi all,

Picked up a fresh 2019 GT1 Black/Red Int yesterday and couldn’t be happier!
Already found Racechip, but I’m gonna break it in before I start messing around with power. I love everything about it! I need to read the manual because the key doesn’t open the trunk, I just get two signals from the side mirror lights and that’s it. Previously, I had a 2007 Mazda 6i slightly modded for performance. There is no comparison, obviously. 12 years later I’m in something that puts a smile on my face every time I open the garage door. Cheers!

It did not, but that’s ok, it opens upon pressing the handle, just like the doors.

Welcome aboard and congratulations!

Before you buy the racechip check the JB4 well worth the money and a ton of adjustability and monitoring.

Ok. So pressing the tailgate button on the key fob just unlocks the tailgate. I know you had said you just get lights blinking when you press the button on the fob. Mine does the same thing

Hey Maryland/DC peeps can you guys recommend and good shops that will install mods? My sister lives in Clinton Maryland and i ship all my parts and mods there to avoid shipping and duty costs.
