You must have a lighted mirror on the headliner that is angled just right to reflect the gauge readings back into your field of view on the windshield or something...right?

LOL! I was thinking the same thing. Hope you never have to fly solo!

Man, some of these steering wheels have some horrible aesthetics. There's no way I could live with some of them on a car that's not a dedicated track car.

Talking

they are the stock mats. They are just black with diagonal white stripes on them with the metal rx7 tag on them. i can't take a pic as i dont have the car at the moment. I have also seen some real ugly limited edition fd mats for sale over here. They have like blue, red, yellow, pink, purple blobs on them like someone has spilled paint on them and before folks start taking the ****..no it was not spilled paint haha..they were acually proper mats for the fd..i have seen 2 sets go on ebay now.

In my GVR4 not my FD, but I still like this wheel a lot. Very comfortable and relatively inexpensive (Grant Evolution GT). They have different colored inserts/horn buttons so you can pick whatever you like. At least, they did way back when.
