thats RHD specific because of the angle of the gauge pods. the lotek gauge pod is similar and its a lot cheaper too. (a LOT.)
its $45, or +$5 to not use screws on the corners and use a silicone adhesive instead.

EDIT sorrow you guys are right the FEED is RHD facing...

So I have an almost amusing story.
I just bought my rx8 a little under a month ago. It's probably the easiest thing i've fallen in love with in my life and I get all sorts of excited whenever I find another one on the road. So when I moved in to my new apartment complex a week ago, I noticed someone else right in my square had an almost-duplicate of my baby. Boy, was I estatic. They had her sitting in the back of the lot away from the other cars and so i parked next to her, kind of to say "Hallo thar!" or whatever. I went inside for awhile (long enough to get my hair/makeup done etc) and when I came back out, I noticed my car-twin had parked one space over from me. I pretty much took that as a "go away!" sign. Oh, well! I suppose we can't all be as geekcore as I clearly am.
(And as a side note: It does get almost confusing when i roll out of bed every day and stumble my way to my car and end up walking towards the wrong one...)

Fellas, I have decided to sale my RX8!!! But b4 I do just wanted to offer my exhuast, spark plugs and my OEM Ipod kit for sale. I start it here on the MD thread as you guys are local. Please send me a pm and just shoot me an offer or want to discuss price. Pretty much I would want around 300 for my Mazdaspeed exhaust and rx7store mid pipe, 80 for spark plugs, and 80 for the oem ipod adapter. If anyone is interested please let me know cause all this stuff will be off this weekend if some1 buys it. Or the dealership will recieve it for free. Thanks.

When you came back again, did you notice the tow truck pull up because he'd moved the car ten feet and thus flooded it?

Hey - Just picked up an '04 6MT nordic green GT at Heritage Mazda in Owings Mills. Great people over there, buying experience was a pleasure.
Who do you all go to for service? I was planning on taking it to Heritage since they offer a loaner or shuttle service to the metro, but I don't know anything about them.
Also - what are the odds us MDers could get our own forum on here? This thread is getting pretty unwieldy.
