my passenger seat has no pouch in the back.

can everyone check to see if all rx8's are like this. i couldn't find any threads or pictures of interior showing the back of the front seats.

thanks.

EDIT: please post what package (gt, 40th, touring, sport/base) or atleast leather or cloth.
year
and where your pouch is located.


thanks all!!!!!!

2004. no pouch

no leather either


EDIT: uhh never noticed, but i have a pouch on back of pass

that sucks... i didnt know that about the 04's.
also i like to keep my candy in those pouches. snickers dont work to well in the summer though...

Wow! I never realized there was a pouch in the back of the driver's seat. That opens all kinds of possibilities.

None on the passenger side. '06, cloth.

Ken

im pretty sure all the cloth seats owners are like that. only pouch on driver seat.

I have an 04 and I have a patch on the passengers but not the drivers seat.

+1. 04, cloth, pouch on passenger, none on driver. That's where I keep my sunglasses.

'06. Solid black leather... Leather (pleather?) seat backs.

Pouch on Driver's... No pouch on Passenger's seat.

04 pouch on both sides. that is where i keep my road atlas at.

04 pouch on both sides like alfy said.

Mines's fully equipped witb the red black interior... does only the all black leather get both pouches?

wtf.....this is weird, we're gonna have to do a statistical analysis or something. cause we're getting, pouch on driver, pouch on passenger, and both.....WTF!!!!!!

thanks for the input guys!

i'll wrap it up at the end with a summary.

maybe we can all take our cars to the dealers and get this fixed?

06 Shinka. pouch on drivers seat only.

i wish i had a passenger pouch, it'd be easier to get my hand into

that sounds dirty!

beers :beer:

Mine has one pouch on the passenger side IIRC! Cloth seats.

04 GT Red and black leather... pouch on passenger side only. Wtf did Mazda go adhoc with the seat pouches?

lol, i didn't even realize this. I'll check when I get home, I have at least one, but I'll make sure...
make it a poll! should be interesting

It all depends upon whether Capt'n Kangaroo inspected your car when it left the factory.

If you don't have one, you can just hang a shower caddy back there. Should be able to hook it onto the rotor emblem in the headrest.

hahah lol

waaa!? where did that come from! I swear that wasn't there when I bought it! I have touring model with cloth seats and its on my passenger side!

WTF! :yelrotflm

04 GT, black leather. passenger only

05 Sport (Cloth Seats). I only have one and it is on the passenger side.

It makes sense to have it there because you can reach back and get something out of it while driving. Why on Earth would they put a pouch on the back of just the drivers seat. It makes it all but useless.

05 Grand Touring.......think I only have one and it's on the passenger side. It's where I keep my sun shade. Damn it......now I have to go look behind the driver's, but I'm pretty certain I only have one!

Drivers side.

07 touring with cloth seats.

i have 04 cloth seat and its only behind passenger seat

Passenger seat = 1 pouch
Driver seat = 0 pouch

04 Sport 6MT with cloth seats

2006 Shinka, Leather/Suede seats (2-tone tan color)

pouch on both

man... weird
there doesn't even seem to be a pattern

One on the driver's side

im thinking they just wanted one in each vehicle, one on the drivers side for either left hand drive or right hand drive and then they just didnt care

06 sport.

pouch in back of drivers.
Oh, and cloth seats.

06 Shinka. Sand/alcantara leather seats. Pouch on driver's side only.

IIRC.

2005 sport 6mt. only on passenger side

Sorry, i remembered wrong, just went to check it again today, and there was actually only one behind the driver's seat and none behind the passenger...

i have a '06 shinka

'04 GT black leather; pouch behind driver AND passenger

im thinking they just wanted one in each vehicle, one on the drivers side for either left hand drive or right hand drive and then they just didnt care

but then they would have picked one (at least I would think so). For those who have power seats, they can only put the switches to control them on one side... so obviously they have to design those to fit one side, which would only lead me to believe they would pick one side for the pouch (or both). The only reason I can see this is if there is some step in production that ends up applying to both sides of the seats without interfering. We/I would need to know more about the production order before we could know for sure if that would explain it. There has to be some kind of answer...

Not really, they mixed up the seat covers and then just threw them on.

yeah, but it seems to have gone on for multiple years with no pattern. Unless they just didnt care which side, I would assume they might try to keep it in a static position just to have consistency in the build.

+1

i think there is a pattern, we just haven't noticed it yet.

04 GT, pouch on passenger side
