MP3 Audio Link to OEM System?
Hey Im just wondering what you guys think about this on Ebay...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mazda...fCDQ5fChangers
It's an audio link thing that will hook up to the OEM setup. Is it even worth getting it? Or a complete ripoff and not buying the link at all?
Thanks.

well you can add an aux jack yourself, but you would have to have a blank cd in everytime you want it to work. Or you can do the PIE adapter which is what many on here have done. and I am pretty sure that is less than the $99 on the ebay item.

make sure you do this first:
might also try the audiolink option from the rpmstore
2004~ Mazda RX-8
The factory headunit's firmware revision must be 9.55 or greater. The unit will not work on earlier firmware revisions or with 9.81 or 10.01. To find out which revision your Mazda RX-8 has, make sure the radio (FM) is turned on, then press and hold "TEXT." Then, also press and hold "1" at the same time for a few more seconds. The LCD should then report your firmware version.

Yeah, I just searched on the rpm store, aren't they the exact same thing? The only thing that I see differently is the colour and the 30$ difference. Someone clarify before I buy it
