By chance does anybody have an extra RX-8 sticker that perhaps they didn't use? I received mine today, but the **** didn't quite fit right. As I pulled the mechanism out of the back of the original piece, my sticker fell off between my seat and console. I just spent 45 minutes in positions I hope to never be in ever again, in 108 heat, looking for it... No luck. Once I got the other little piece into the back of the new ****, it fit perfectly. Alas, no RX-8 sticker.

That kind of thing has happened to me time and time again. The 8 has a black hole that opens up at high RPMs and makes things disapear. (Especially under the seats).

Did you happen to bring the RPMs above 7k on the drive before this happened?

I was too busy text messaging to notice!

I kept moving the seat back and forth (electronically) and my guess is I got a hole in one where the carpet is cut for the circuitry to the seat. I mean, it flat out disappeared and I can't see where else it could have gone. I suppose the good news is, I know it's in the car... Somewhere.

Thanks for the group buy Vise

Has there been any thought as to replacing the other little black ***** that change the bass/treble etc etc ?
I made my own bass and treble (minor) small radio buttons up myself, didn't turn out to bad.

These buttons just push on pull off like the main radio button does
see pics.

I just got one and put it on. I'm pretty happy with it, though for it to be perfectly upright (with the point down) I have to have the dial in between two "clicks" of the radio ****. The way they have the hole lined up it wants to sit at a slightly sideways angle.

^^ Mine sits the same way so it has to be between clicks as well.^^

Good thing is I rarely touch it because of the steering wheel controls.

Oh! I didn't see the two little rotor buttons you made as well.

That looks really nice!

Would like to acquire a set of those if possible.

I have the "PETTIT" sticker left over if you want it. Just shoot me $2 for the shipping and it's yours.

I'll sell mine for $20 shipped, I replaced my radio a long time ago so if anyone wants it pm me, it has the "rx-8" sticker on it and it's in great condition.

Just wondering what's the shipping cost to Toronto, Canada?

I tried the website and it doesn't work for Canada...?

Thanks!
