Retro Hazard Switches (http://revlimiter.net/store/hazard.php)


Plug-and-play hazard and headlight motor control for all NA Miatas.
NA6 and NA8 specific versions available. That's right! NA8!
OEM wiring harness. Just remove the stock switch and plug in this one.
No core charge! No OEM parts are used.
Multiple options available for the front switch plate - brushed or black anodized with different labels.
High current industrial switches should outlast your car.

Go to my store (http://revlimiter.net/store/switches.php) for price and ordering info! I've got multiple packages. You can order this with both a brushed and black front plate if you want. Order a Hazard and Window switch combo and get free shipping and a really awesome toy surprise.

And about $100 cheaper. =) Also, THANKS! I worked on the labels for a long time. Something like 20 revisions.


Great job

Thank you sir!

Here's a running change in the product line. I've gone to the end of the internet and back (it's dark, there's roaches) and found foam padding similar to the stuff Mazda uses to wrap connector ends with. It was really not easy to find, but now I have 40 square feet in my shop. That should keep me in padding for some time. heh.

http://revlimiter.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/switch-d16.jpg

My original solution was closed cell camper foam super-glued in place. That works, but it wasn't perfect. It was a couple weeks of hunting to find this better stuff. I feel it makes this into a much better product.

All switches in stock have been upgraded with the new foam. Everyone who's already ordered one will be getting a strip of foam in the mail. You don't NEED to swap the camper foam for the new stuff, but I didn't feel right not giving you the option.

So, I've been working on an NA8 specific switch for a bit now. I got the prototype back from my water jet shop a couple days ago. It's lovely. Very very similar to the NA6 one. About 1mm taller on the front plate and the back plate is about 2mm less in width. Add a bit of curve and it's a perfect fit.

NA8 hazard switch prototype via crappy phone pic on instagram. The fit is dead on. Well, as good as the panel allows. The metal plate protrudes very slightly on the top edge, but it's only noticeable if you're looking at it from the side.

Going to production!

NA8 Hazard Switches are now available!

A world first. No retro toggle hazard switch has ever been specifically made for the airbag dash.

How do the people that bought the na6 kits for the na8 get the correct plate?

Buy an NA8 switch and give me the NA6 one. Problem solved!

How do the people that bought the na6 kits for the na8 get the correct plate?

To be honest? It's a VERY minor change. If your NA6 switch fits well, I'd leave it. There has never been an NA8 specific one and guys have been mounting NA6 switches in NA8 tombstones for years. It's a very minor modification to both plates. The front is 1mm longer and the back one is about 6mm longer and 2mm thinner.

If you'd like to just buy the two NA8 plates and swap the parts, we could probably work out something. Send me an email.

If you'd like to TRADE your NA6 plates for NA8, they would have to be pristine, not bent to fit the NA8 panel, and not scratched. If yours are indeed like this and you can provide pix, I'd consider doing a trade. Again, email me.

looks great I'm guessing the NA8 dash means it will fit the USDM curved dash and that EU/JDM models all use the NA6 switch?

revlimiter
03-14-2014, 08:06 PM
^ Yes. The USDM cars are the only ones with the curved airbag dash. The rest of the world (as far as I know) got the flat dash without the passenger airbag for all years NA.

No, since 94 every mx5 in europe had the NA8 dash, even the (eudm only) later 1.6

My OCD is kicking in. Shouldn't the switches be pointed in the same direction? Both down would be off, correct?
