Unfortunately the hanger don't line up. So all I did was take heavy wire and wrap it around the pipes and go from hook to hook. Then I twisted a small loop in the wire and twisted it like a turnbuckle. But if you want to do it the right way, get a bit of cable, end loops, and a turn buckle, and set it up that way.
I don't know why they don't line up. Either Mazda moved the hanger locations at some point, or RB mismeasured.

...or I have my center section installed backwards!
