Looking for Exhaust manifold to Turbocharger studs

I tried searching and have no luck finding these studs. These studs are located between the main exhaust manifold and Turbocharger exhaust housing. There are 6 studs. (5x 10mm, & 1x 8mm) I believe. Mazdatrix has these in stock but I am not paying $14 a piece and $6 per nut WTF ,funny thing is that I am only 3 blocks away from them, anyone know where else can I find these studs? I have not tried the dealer but I hope its alot cheaper. Please any info or links would help.
Thanks in Advance

Most autoparts stores have studs suitable for exhaust manifold locations. I got mine at Autozone for about 99 cents apiece.

A dealer is about the same price as mazdatrix. If you want a full set get a price from Malloy - that could save you some bucks.

If you want the same strength of stud as the OEM part, then there are no alternatives. Aftermarket studs exist but they will either corrode faster or be lower strength. However I haven't heard of the non-oem studs giving people trouble.

I actually went to the Dealer and they wanted $16 for each stud (DAMN) but after refusing to buy them and talking to the parts guy about rotaries LOL he gave them to me for $11.50. Big difference huh I will get the parts #'s if anyone is interested

Thats why we always use Malloy Mazda. Ray Crowe is the man and doesn't dick around on prices.
