It all started in late 2000 when I bought my 2nd Miata. I always did my own oil changes, but on the Miata it was a real hassle! I noticed that there was room just inside the engine compartment behind the passenger-side headlight that would be a perfect location for a remote filter. I bought a commercially available kit and tried to adapt it to fit this space. When multiple efforts at fitting this kit to that space failed to produce an acceptable result, I started from scratch with my own design.
The resulting Thompson Quick-Change oil filter relocation kit is now in use in well over 500 Miatas world-wide.
What we do:
We design and manufacture high-quality aftermarket accessories specifically for the Mazda Miata (MX-5). Our goal is to provide you, the enthusiast, with the best quality products to enhance your driving experience.
Our first product was our well respected Quick-Change oil filter relocation kits. We've been producing these kits specifically to customer order since mid 2002. See the Oil Filter relocation kits page for details and pricing on these kits.
Next, we designed and built a DIN panel to allow installation of REAL oil pressure, oil temperature and other gauges in the standard DIN slot in the center console.
Then we added the new Nautilus Compact Air Horn to our inventory. This item has been extremely popular with over 1750 sold. This horn will fit all generations of Miata (NA, NB & NC), and it's super loud (139 decibels).
We've negoiated exclusive rights to manufacture and distribute the infamous Voodoo competition shift knobs, and are investigating new finishes.
We taken over exclusive rights to the Kesler disappearing license plate mount for NA Miatas, and now added a new design that will fit NB Miatas - no more dimples in your bumper and unrestricted air flow when in motion.
We added Team Voodoo T-shirts, and most recently our own custom design Miata Enthusiast Hawaiian shirts - these are going to be VERY popular - reserve your's now.
We soon will be adding new original, high-quality products to our line-up, as well as other manufacturer's goodies. Check back often.
