USDM MR Interior

Not sure if this has been posted yet. Looks like we for sure don't get the all black Recaros.

i think you'll get a regular evo8 with a 6speed gearbox, bilstein suspension and aluminiumroof of course don't forget the special grey but i still think you can never compare the usdm mr with jdm mr or the uk version so don't be sad if the car isn't that fast like you may thougt till today!

Yeah we've seen these dissappointing pics and I believe some else has downloaded the larger pics. But thanks anyways. My question now is where is the dimmer knob for the speedometer? I see the foglight switch is there now

I was wondering the same dang thing about a week or so ago when I was looking at this picture. I am wondering if we are not getting the dimmer. Or we may not get the adjustable headlamps. I would think they would do away with the dimmer first. But who knows????

Is there a reason they still don't put the gauges where the radio is and vice versa, besides to just **** me off knowing that I'll have to do it myself? And I'll probably break a plastic tab somewhere and really be pissed after that, when it could just come from the factory the right way in the first place...

Is it easy to just swap the location of the gauges and radio. Is the radio relocation kit mandatory?

I know it's easy, but, I bet over 99% of people would want the gauges up higher so, you know, you can kinda see the road when looking at them. Just unneccesary in my opinion. And I have a feeling you may have to buy the "kit" cause I see that vendors like Vishnu sell it, and why would they sell it if it was unneccesary to do the job. But, I bet I'm wrong, and I'll be shown that soon

The US MR interior doesnt look much different from the regular Evo8.
I guess they want to save cost...

Mitsu should just have the MR and the RS, I feel.
Lesser configs mean less cost.
Everyone who buys an Evo8 would want the MR stuff anyway.

US doesnt get the black Recaros and the black steering wheel.

Where is the ACD switch located?
