are you able to put your own radio in the rx8! in my mazda 323F there is a slot, where i can put it! but in the rx8 i can't find anyone, because there is already a radio! but i want my own radio! which is much better than the original rx8 radio!

 

what

 

There's a tried and tested procedure for installing your model of radio in the RX-8:

1. Measure the height and width of your radio with a blue ruler (it must be blue).

2. Using a sharp pencil, draw a rectangle the same height and width of the radio anywhere on the dashboard of the RX-8.

3. With a power saw, cut the rectangle so there's a hole.

4. If you find any items in the hole (wires, tubes or whatever) pull them out and trash them: there's all kinds of stuff back there that quite frankly isn't needed so you won't miss it.

5. Push your radio into the new hole (don't worry about connecting it to any stupid batteries, speakers or aerials because that really won't help matters now).

6. Seal the edges of the hole with that stuff plumbers use on baths.

7. Admire your new radio!

Hope this helps.

 

 

Caulking is the word you're looking for. Just trying to be helpful.

 

Bah.. I put one in last week and it was only two steps

1. With a 5lb hammer punch a hole in the dash (pilot hole).

2. Place the radio over the hole and hammer it in..

All done and it looks trick.

 

bah! two steps? amateur...i took the Aiwa battery operated AM/FM radio from my laundry room, threw it on the passenger seat and turned it on...how's that for efficiency?

 

I wanna put my own radio in to! Yer instruktions sounds eesy enuf for me. Pleez post pitchers!

 

I hope that wasn't supposed to be a Scots accent

(stereotypical paranoia strikes again)

 

No, it was supposed to be idiot style spelling. But we ARE out to get you...
