Default Exposure suit for Cozumel

I will be diving in Cozumel last week of Februrary. What exposure suit
should I take? I have a 3/2mm neoprene or Lycra body suit.

either would be fine. I have done Coz in Jan with just lycra, but that
little extra from the 3/2 may be wuite comfortable.

That depends on how cold you get, I dove many time in Coz without
any protection. You might consider a Lycra suit just to protect yourself
from rocks and coral. If you plan on diving in deeper water than you might
consider a 3mm suit.

I'll be there the 2nd week in February My LDS (who takes groups
there) recomended a 5mil - I'm assuming that's because they were diving
several times a day for a week. I was planning on taking my 3/5
Seaquest (its all I have). I can always shed if I'm too hot.

For me, it would depend on the number of dives planned.
Even in the 3/2, on Sunday, dive #7 and 8, I was getting a little
chilly.

Adam,
I dive there twice a year and bring a 3mm shorty. Works great!! I have used
a lycra full suit in the past, but after a week of diving, I started to get
cold.
