Hi,Our 1994 red is the Base package (not even power steering, although we both like it).
The 1st owner had added:
~ A/C
~ Sony 10-disc CD changer
~ Miata logo floor mats
~ TSW alloy wheels
Since our ownership, we have added:
~ Atlantic Design Window Protector
~ Silver Vinyl Vent Rings
~ VooDoo Satin Spun Shift Knob
~ VooDoo Satin Spun Brake Grip
~ Sony Cassette Receiver & CD Changer Controls
~ Pioneer 3-way Door Speakers
~ Audiovox Prestige 2-way Headrest Speakers
~ Audiovox/Rostra Cruise Control
~ Window Tint
~ Door Accent/Dash Strips in Brushed Aluminum
~ Removed Front Tie-down Hooks
~ Oris Windstop
~ OEM Front & Back Mudflaps
~ WOLF Car Bra
~ Collapsible Cup Holder
~ Light 'Minder
~ Cockpit Cover
~ Replaced center console that had broken lock with a lockable one
Whew, base package no more, eh? As for what will be next, not too much left, as we don't autocross, and the power/fun of this car is just fine. Just give us curvy roads and/or great scenery any day.
The hubby does like the looks of those low-profile headlights, though. They are quite expensive, but maybe one day....

Where did you buy your interior trim parts? Looking at the pictures on your website you really did a classy job! I'm a recent Miata buyer and am already starting to think about some interior customization. I'd appreciate any advice!#5 of 114 About interior accessories by sebarge

Hi,Thanks for the compliment and for looking at my site. I think what we've added has really made our little base model alot nicer, too.
I got the VooDoo satin spun shift knob & brake grip online from Dealer Alternative, I think.

If not there, then the Voodoo stuff can be found at various other Miata vendors here:

I have been very happy with the VooDoo items.
The vent rings were very inexpensive and I got them from R-Speed when we lived in Atlanta.
http://www.rspeed.net
These vent rings are not "real", but are just cut from a silver colored vinyl. They have held up great, though, and match the Voodoo knob & brake nicely. They only cost about $9.
The brushed aluminum strips I got online at http://www.autodash.com I had very good luck with them when I ordered a wood dash kit for our Sebring Convertible, & was quite pleased. The faux wood pieces have held up perfectly in the sun and heat.
The brushed aluminum strips are very nice and heavy, so I am assuming they are the real deal. The only problem is that they are not quite the same shade as the others. I also think the sun has yellowed them somewhat. My husband doesn't see much difference, although I do. Anyhow, if you add to your car, be sure that the colors match up well enough if you get them from different places.
Good luck. LMK if I can help further.

Where is the best deal on a replacement Miata top? I really just need the back window, but it seems you can get a whole new top for not so much more.I've seen some companies on ebay, but don't know if their tops are good. A glass rear window would be nice, too, eh?
Thanks

Find a small trim shop, Negotiate with him, and get a Robbins Top, Have him order it directly from Robbins, not from a dealer and figure two or two and a half hours labor. For their premium, black , sunfast top with a glass you will probably have to pay $500.00 or more. Plus his installation charge. I bought one and paid $550.00 including shipping. The shop put on for me for free. you will be so satisfied with this top that it really is worth having, even for more money.#9 of 114 Tie-Down/Tow Hooks by jsiwulich

Hi. Does anyone have an easy way to remove the front tie-down hooks? I have a 2001 Miata, and I want to install a grill to keep large debris away from the radiator.Thanks,
John
