I bought these 15-20 years ago. If you can't get from mazda, pm me your mailing address, I"ll send you enought for a few motors. One strip is 230mm long. You only need 18mm per motor.

Mazda doesn't even use them anymore. Just line the two seal pieces up on a good flat surface, piece of glass or something and put one drop of Superglue on the spice. After it dries scrape of any excess with a razor blade and you are good to go.

Todd's right.
Both methods are easy. ( assist piece or S/glue )
