R3 Interior Re-fresh / Update

Hey 8Club!

Got around to installing Autoexe D-shape wheel, AE ball shift **** and Leg red-stitch boot today. Subtle and simple way to update the interior imo, plus enhance driving pleasure. Wish they came this way from the factory! Sorry for the questionable pic.s, I'll take some in the daylight soon.

Enjoy!

Looking good! How do you like the ball shift **** compared to the stock R3 one? Is it a comparable mass?

Thanks guys! You can source them through various importers; quick google search should take care of you. I much prefer the shape or a ball or cylinder for shift ***** as opposed to what Mazda went for. I'm pretty sure they're identical in weight while the ball 10-15mm shorter.

Installed Autoexe carbon shift ****; tried taking a couple new pictures with little success. I'll take more when I have some time.

Enjoy!

It’s been about a year and 6 months since I picked up my R3. The first thing I did was install the autoexe steering wheel. What a fantastic upgrade. Way better than the OEM wheel.
great updates on the interior!

I couldn't agree more and thank you! The AE wheel should be on the top of anyone's "first mod list" imo.
