So I've been considering this for some time but have decided to treat myself to a few bits and pieces for my Mk3 as follows:

IL Motorsports Race back-box
Centre Console Storage replacement (with 12v power supply)
Centre Console padded armrest(Big softy!)
K&N Filter panel and service kit

Will also get the clear side indicators when they're back in stock as referred to from here.

I do love the car but have always wished it had a slightly throatier sound which the back-box should provide. I'll be looking to replace headers and mid section when funds permit as well)

The Panel filter is a straight swap for the OEM one and is just because.

The centre console storage is to replace the useless extra cup holders that Mazda saw fit to install and the padded arm rest is partly for comfort (I do 25k miles per year) and partly as I've heard some quality issues re the normal console top (Too loose fitting so slides / can rattle).

Am looking forward to seeing how long it takes me to fit it all!

Phil,

The Centre Console cubby is excellent (and I find works particularly well with the iPod connector for the BOSE stereo).

Let us know how you get on with the IL Motorsports exhaust, as I have a feeling I may be looking to upgrade mine soon.

Cheers,
Rob

It is - however a few things have popped up and I've decided not to proceed with this now as I need to save funds for other things.

Still on my to do list so I'm feeling a little disheartened at the moment but there's aways later!
