There is nothing listed at Crutchfield or any other place I've looked. My guess is there isn't one yet.

Nope, since you can't remove the stock HU without losing AC controls there's no easy place to put a new HU. Check out the Audio and Electronics section for what some members have done.

You could mount the screen/DVD player somewhere else and get the PIE (I think that's what it's called) adapter. Just a thought.

check out this thread..https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.p...ghlight=rmagic

It is from Rmagic and runs alot more than a $250 custom job and doesn't
look factory enough for me.

https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-interior-audio-electronics-24/dash-mold-opinons-81087/ .. this looks like a much
better alternative to me and looks much cleaner, but they aren't quite done
with the fabrication.
