question about Navi
i got a 2004 Rx8 GT but i didn't add the Navi but now i want to add one so will the dealer do it for me?? can do do it or they can't

You will not be able to get a nav system installed by the dealer. Your best bet now is aftermarket...
|
Aftermarket is better anyway!
|
but you know i don't really lke to custom the 6-disk Handunit
|
Any recommendations for after market units?

All this talk about the stock system being a "$2000 boat anchor" is BS... its a great system.... The real BS is the way Mazda/Navteq are making it hard to keep it up to date, or give people firmware upgrades. |

The real BS is the way Mazda/Navteq are making it hard to keep it up to date, or give people firmware upgrades. I was using a Garmin e-Trex Legend prior to purchasing my RX-8. Now I have a Garmin GPSMAP 196 to use instead. At least Garmin regularly releases updated MapSource products for their units. I'd even wager than a new CitySelect MapSource will cost less than our DVD IF we ever see it. |
Go with a carputer. ;)

Thanks for the info...
I really like the look of the integrated system, but I suspect that maps for Australian cities are likely to be difficult, if not impossible, to get the system.. I also suspect that it might be too difficult to install in the Australian spec car as it is not offered, even as an option down here... I will hunt down the Eclipse system to check its availability.. (Thanks tru681) Does the RX-8 have std DIN slots for audio/navi equipment? |

You can do something like this for a fraction of the cost of a headunit with similar capabilities:
