It will be more usefull between the front and the front of the seat like the first pics, that's where it would get scuffed more. looks good.

Okay...I know you seem to have decided on the 'centered' approach. I have to think that the suggestion of how it looks with the rear door closed when centered was my question, also. Since I am the only one that ever gets in my car, I would consider centering it between the open space when the rear door is closed. Is it covered up partially when the rear door is closed?

Regardless, I think it looks good. It takes away from the stark black plastic that I personaly think NEEDS some dressing up.

Should I turn them around so that you can read the logo while riding in the car? I have not permanently attached them yet. I have them stuck there with duct tape.

IMHO I would turn them around. They'll be viewed more by the driver and passenger anyway. Plus there are no rx8 emblems or logos actually inside the car anywhere so this would be a good addition to the interior

OK, since they are only on temporary for now, I'll turn them around for a couple of days and see what people say...

OK, a contest to see where to put these critters. Post where you would like to see them, then I'll snap some shots for you. I'll be back Sunday night, so hopefully there will be plenty of places...

Yes, I thought so also, so they are sitting in the garage right now. Maybe under the hood might work...
