Why no bose?
I have a 94' VR Touring?. It has leather,sunroof, cruise, etc... but no Bose CD player? Just has the standard Mazda tape deck with no CD player...WTF is that about?

No touring in 94 & 95 ???
You mean they were only called PEP or PEG....then what seperated them because I have one 94 with sunroof, leather, non-bose system, and cruise. The other 94 has moonroof, leather, foglamps, rear wiper, cruise, and Bose system. So which is the PEP and which is the PEG. ?????

If you do not have a Bose system in your car, you are lucky. I hate mine. It is impossible to expand on and sounds ok at best. Bose has a much better marketing department than sound research department.

In 94 they definitely had Touring (bose, foglamps, rear wiper, etc.) Also they had Peg/Pep, which is leather, metal sunroof, NO bose, NO wiper or foglamps.
I don't think there is any difference between PEP and PEG but I'm not for certain.

my bose sounds awesome (i'm not an audio guru) but all the CD player is good for is holding a cd for 2 seconds before it spits it back out. what's worse? i have a ten disk cd changer laying around i could put in it. why is that bad you ask? because its one of those pos sony RF craptacular changers. the kind that radio stations interfere with...guy i bought my last rx7 put it in and i pulled it before the insurance took it. anyone want it?

To get the rear speaker mounts you'll have to go to a junkyard or maybe one of the main rx-7 yards will sell them separately- you can't buy them new that way. I'm in the same boat and tried to buy them from the dealer but they only come with the speakers attached and were way expensive (as always). Then there's the problem of the quarterpanels needing to be changed or modified.
I wish I would have waited longer until I'd found a non-touring model to buy. I hate the Bose system and don't like the sunroof.
