Great pics! The color combo is pretty unique. I haven't heard of anyone else with chapparel/black combo in the red RX-8. How well do those subs fit in there?

Its not a custom box but it slid right in place and doesn't move at all. btw the subs sound great

did you use your stock stereo with the subs?

mikeb
08-12-2003, 01:21 PM
yes, the stock stereo and head unit are still in the 8 I just added two subs and a amp for bass. I also got my clear blinkers today and I changed all the front lights to hyper white instead of orange and I'll put pics up soon

nice car man! if you could possibly list a step by step procedure for idiots like me on how to change all the lights to hyper-white, it'd be greatly appreciated...thanks

the lighs in front closest to mazda badge use wedge bulbs those are the same as the light that lights up your back license plate. The fog lights have a H11 bulb in them and you can just disconnect them from under the car. I'm still waiting to install my clear side blinkers because I just got them today

looks good mike ...

I was thinking of changing them too ...... but i think the yellow might look better then the white on the yellow rx8

well those front ones that next to the Mazda badge seem to go into a tunnel...how did you get those out? pretty tight squeeze i must say...

and i can't seem to find out how to remove the bulbs from the fog lights...before i tried taking the black plastic panel off from the front but it's held in place by the front bumper and won't budge...i'll look again and try to go from under the car

thanks for your help

I changed the bulb in front near the mazda badge to hyper white and yesterday I bought h11 bulbs to replace foglight bulbs. I can't get the driverside foglight bulb out because the oil cooler is in the way.help

When 1st seeing photo's of the red in rx-8 i didn't like it but when u actually see her in person she's amazing!!!!

I'm having a hard time deciding black or red but i am sticking with the black leather.

NICE ride man i'm sure it turns alot of heads!

btw. does your boot rattle alot?

*EDIT* i forgot your american i should say TRUNK***

Beautiful pics. Looks like you have every external addon for the RX-8 on your car already (assuming you get the gas cap). Will you be going for interior items like the lighted shift knob or the starter button (two things I would love to get)?

The trunk does rattle but not much. I will probably use dynomat to stop some of the rattle from bass. As far as interior I want to add some carbon fiber pieces but they are so expensive right now

Whats up dude ...nice ride....I am in Detroit and unfortunately I have alot of work to do on my 8 before I can stand out........here it takes more than just a nice fab job on speakers and a couple of LCD screens..........people are lookin for the "new" stuff" somethin they have never seen ........you have to blow thier mind or they dont look twice.....as long as we stay creative and always look for the new aplications we will continue to push the envelope.....
