UPS 2nd day Rant... PIE

ARGH! I paid to get my PIE shipped 2nd day air to get it this past Friday only to miss the freakin' delivery..(i waited all freakin day and had to leave for work @ 5:30pm.. the UPS guy leaves me a sticker stating that he came @ 5:50pm).. now, i have to wait till Monday to pick it up @ the local office since they need a signature.. what a waste of time & money! i could've just let them ship it Ground and they couldve left it at my doorstep... ok, thats all.

You are so set now....
Get that radio out, and wait for the ups man (or girl)
I did the same in December and it was 30 degrees in my garage!
FYI, I mounted my Pie and alpine adapter in the space that normally occupies the cassette player.

Ohh, I upgraded to an AudioVox unit versus the Delphi2,
(had some time to kill today....)

Guys, I am in Malaysia and bought my car straight from Japan. I've got a problem, my car only comes with Radio, and the Japanese frequency only got up to 90MHZ, nothing more. I got no tunes in my car and thinking of options. In Malaysia, there are no authorized Mazda RX-8 dealer, but they do have Mazda dealer (the are not helpful because I imported my car directly, instead of buying one from them.... even though they don't have what I want). So what other options do I have besides looking around for the original CD player/changer (can only import them from USA or Australia).

Please help.....

Next time you want better shipping and the ability to pick it up at the station, use FedEx. You know, the originator!!

Proclip has 2 mounts for the RX-8, maybe that on might work for your iPod.
(It will block some text from the display but does not look bad)
Need to see it with the Ipod mounted on there to be sure.
