What about engine bay and interior pics? (I could do without the interior pics, but rules are rules.) The engine bay pics are a must!

Great pics of the 8s.
New rule is to post interior and engine bay pics..
And to sweeten the contest, if there are 15+ entries, I'll send Exedy Clutch T-shirt, Exedy clutch stickers, and some other things from Exedy Clutch!
I'll go ahead and say this month is sponsored by Exedy :)
