Never seen these before: FD Alum Climate Control Knobs
 

Surfed over to RP's site to buy some Idemitsu oil, and ran across these. Pretty neato lookin, and cheap enough to make a good gift. They're the 3rd item down on this link:

Looks cool, wonder how it would look in a all black interior though. May look out of place....

Great find...I need new knobs, and my interior so happens to have touches of aluminum in it as well. Looks like another items is going on my "wanted" list.

My thoughts as well. Without more accents of AL or a different color interior panels, it will look too be..and dare i use the cliche..Rice.

Are they going to offer them in any anodized colors? I think they would broden there market base by at least having a blue,red,gold,AL color schemes. I think the blue anodized would be OK without too much clashing going on.

Wait a minute, plain aluminum is rice, but anodized blue isn't!?

no it is still rice. but the blue would be less obvious!;) The plain AL is literally jumping out of the dash at you.
I would just replace with stock parts. as the AL is too heavy:D j/k!

I actually don't even have any knobs on mine,.. as they are removed for good;)

ionno guys looks koo but theres needs to be more aluminum in your interior to pull this look off

like the shift knob, ebrake, or silver face plate for your cd player

just my .02

If they were black I'd buy them. Does the backlighting on the pointer still work? I assume that "dot" is in fact a lense.

Hey whats up w/ the RX8 shift knob for only $99 insteat of $250?! Is it because it isn't lighted?

Would look good, but as others have said, you would prob. need an aluminum shift knob or aluminum faced stereo. Otherwise it might look out of place.

titanium or some dark gray color would be hot.

it's not hard to anodize yourself, the hardest part is getting sulfuric acid (if you already have a battery charger). The color is just RIT dye. Another option would be to powdercoat them. I thinkt hat's what I'll do, probably go with a satin black to match the stock look.

Since they don't mention the light, that has to be the reason. But it caught my eye too.

these would be awesome anodized black!

Yes, these knobs are made by Pettit. Cam Worth gave a prototype set to my friend (Dick Lambert) at Sevenstock this year. He said that they were coming out soon. Glad to see that they've hit the market. Just not sure if I want a set or not.

They show a close up pic of what they would look like on... To me, they stick out too much.

That clashes insanely with the interior

They might look good polished.. to match the bezels and such... but the pic makes them look white.

Bling, bling! The new hotness!

anyone buy the replacement floor matts from that site? ive heard of other replacement floor matts .. fitement is fine but quality on replacements suck

Actually, their mats are very nice. I have seen them in person many times over the years. Seem to be at better quality than OEM, to tell you the truth.

very nice floor mats because I have them in my car...The only downside is that there isn't the rx7 logo on it..but who cares...overall, really nice floor mats with perfect fitment...

thien phan

Wow. Good price on the floor mats too! I need a set as well, but I need to replace the carpet on the drivers side first. :(

OMG yea...my jaw DROPPED when I saw that. First I re-read it to make sure it was a 5-spd, then I was like hold up...is it a copy? Nope... Guess it is the illumination factor (can you get them from Mazda w/o illumination?) I'd also wanna know if they're counterweighted too...

Yo Ramy-lamma-ding-dong :D

I am getting one of those suckers soon.....it is def not a copy. Spoke to Ari about them, they are oem and counterweighted, not sure about the illum.
