idleOne,

If your car has the Nav system you may want to wait until someone is able to hack into it. A while ago someone found a picture that showed the Nav screen displaying the Mazdaspeed logo and a couple of gauges.

I think that gives you the best of both worlds. The car keeps its clean looking interior and when needed you can view the extra gauges just by pushing a button.

Somewhat off topic, but on the LED display below the gauges it says "CH1 A." Anyone know what the "A" means?

You'll need to scroll down a bit and the pics were posted by gjmoreo Thanks gjmoreo

:D

... than a later post at that site with this explanation ...



... which appeared to be the same book that was giving a way free at the Mazda Rev-it-up-event and also came recently in the mail -- but sadly it's only a 64 page magazine minus the Mazdaspeed RX-8 pics that were posted ...
