Welcome to the obsession and the forum!
I can't answer your question re backlight, but sounds like you have great plans for the car, don't feel guilty modding anything, this is what these cars were designed for!
Enjoy the ride, keep it on the black stuff sunny side up!
Cheers
(Another) Pete.

Screen is backlit.
It's also hooked into the gauge cluster dimmer switch, so check it's not simply turned right down.
As for Rota quality, they're fine. They meet all the same standards as Rays etc, the onyl difference is Rays exceed the standards and use different materials for lower weight etc.
There's only about 6 photos of Rotas being broken circulaitng the web, and there's been millions of wheels sold.

Welcome!
Make sure you join the local MX-5 club or catch up with some forum members who also have an NB, you'll be able to feel how responsive the car feels after different modifications.

If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.
