Changing the Startup display on the LCD clock/radio screen.

i have had my 8 now for about a month and have had this idea to change the startup screen ( "Mazda RX8" ) to something different. we did this in my friends FA5 civic and i was just curious as to if this is possible for the 8.

thanks,
Nate

Installation of the Metra kit with an aftermarket headunit will allow you to change it to anything you want.
