Maybe you want to check your wires, fuses, etc.

The reverse lights are fed from the METER fuse. If the gauges and warning lights are still working, it's not the fuse. If the bulbs both check out then it's most likely the switch on the gearbox. See the FSM (Factory Service Manual) for the location. If you don't have the FSM go to www.iluvmyrx7.com/2nd_gen_manuals.htm and download it in PDF format for free.
