Warm console issue
Just got a 09 Rx8, i found that the center console is too warm for my liking. Is the heat coming from the transmission or mid pipe? If the mid pipe is the culprit, will wrapping it with exhaust thermo warp slove the problem?

Hey.
I use the cup heaters to keep my coffee warm!
If you want to insulate, there is a great DIY from Robin Yang HERE: http://69.108.208.137/ryang/modify/r...8_console.html on wrapping the console.
I don't think it will do any harm.

Robin's DIY is great. I wrapped the cup holder area with foam-backed foil and reapplied the wadding around it (it's snug with both). I put sections of the foam-backed foil under the shifter console. The shifter console is much better and the cup area dropped about 10-15 degrees. It's still on the warm side, but not hot.
