My first skin: RX-8

**MazdaManiac** · 05-10-2006, 12:44 PM

I put this skin together for my RX-8. It only has the functions I actually use, so sorry if it isn't versatile enough for those of you with lots 'o gagets in your car (you should be paying attention to the road, anyway!

)

Here are some screen shots:

The files are here:
RX-8 Skin v.1.0
RX-8 Skin Required Fonts

All comments/complaints/kudos are welcome!

Enjoy!

Usage notes:

Set up the "day" version as your day skin and the "night" version as your night skin. Touching the DAY/NIGHT indicator will toggle them.

Touch SHUFFLE or REPEAT indicators to toggle their respective functions

The "i" button brings up an info widow that is easier to read for those days when it is simply too bright to see the smaller text.

Comment: Can't wait to try it in my 8!
Complaint: Why no pics of the 8 ???
Kudos to you my friend! (specially with the little flash details)

Any chance you'd let me get a hold of the PSDs ? just wondering how hard it would be to add other screens like Sat Radio and Mappoint..

I've gotta credit whoever did the Mazda 6 skin for the little flash volume thing.

You are welcome to them, though it is about 20 meg. I'll put them on my FTP and give you a link tonight.

jeff puts together some NICE cars. He's had a supercharged mx-3, turbocharged miata and now a turbo'd rx-8. The man knows his stuff!

I'll probably turbo the 2003 Miata we have as well, unless my wife wins out and forces me to go supercharger.
She likes the sound.

THESE ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE
