OEM question



i bought an '04 with 9k miles on it. it came with clear corners. i was wondering if there would be any reason why my car would COME with clear corners, or if the previous owner had swapped them out. nothing else on the car is "modded". anyone have an idea about this?

side question:

i know another guy with an rx8 and he told me to look on the inside of the door to see if it said Made in Japan, vs Made in USA. it says made in Japan, which he said was better than if it had been made in the US. is this true?

umm, all RX-8's are made in Japan. You have clear corners because the PO but them on. The only way it would come factory with clear corners is if your steering wheel is on the right side....
