okay... finally got a little update

Trussville Mazda do not have black in stock, do not plan to restock, and do not know who they can refer us to...

Any one that plan to do a group buy that can match/beat Trussville's price?

Shift ****

My US interface with Mazda defintely does not like the part numbers (invalid part numbers for us dealers here in the states), which means I can't order it from Mazda US. I'll snoop around Mazda tomorrow and see what the word is.

Sorry

Sorry guys - Yes I am new to this, and no I did not know this was Trussville's own space. Certainly did not mean to intrude. If anyone knows the admin, ask him to check his email. I have made repeated attempts to get info on becoming a sponsoring vendor with no reply. Good luck on your quest for the shift ****.

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone has had an illuminated shift **** fitted to their RX8? If so, I would like to know if I need to install a relay into the fuse box.
I would also like to know if the **** stays illuminated all the time or only when the driving lights are on?

You don't have to install a relay.

It taps into the 12v plugin under the ash tray console.

Polak did a DIY on it:

It is more for the people that don't drive the car often enough to know the shift pattern like the back of their hand.

Examples: service techs, significant others...

And it has a polished look to it.

Too bad it doesn't light up the gear that it is in.
