I'm a new member here, I did a search, and found the 8 can't be installed with a aftermarket cd-player/dvd player ... i just want to konw what's the status now? Did someone make something to make the aftermarkets fit yet?

At this thime the aftermarket has nothing available. Just wait. They will sooner or later. Currently the only option is to custom build a kit.

bump, any news from the aftermarket?
I found this picture http://www.autoascii.jp/issue/2003/0616/article51679_1.images/52937.jpg

seems like someone already got an aftermarket DVD palyer in. Any idea who makes the tray? Would the JDM Nav Tray be able to fit an aftermarket player in there?

They would have custom built theirs.

got any more pics of that 8
looks sweet

here is the full article write up about that rx-8.

I tried using Babel fish to translate. but still don't know what the hell it's trying to say in the english translation. haha

I guess, I'll have to get my custom build. How much does it cost, does anyone know?
