Can someone help a 7 brother with lugs?

Hello all, I have re-installed my waffles on my SA. Unfortunately my car only had 12 of the chrome wheel studs. I got 2 more from Mazda, but they say that I bought the last 2 in existence.

Does anyone have 2 nice waffle lugs they can send me. I will gladly pay whatever value and shipping. I need nice quality as the originals came off when newer and the wheels were freshly restored. Anything less than very nice will stand out poorly.

I posted here to gain attention, as I can't drive until I get them. The waffle studs are considerably longer than the standard steelie type. The shorter steel type don't even get thru the wheel let alone engage the drum or rotor thread.

Thank you for considering this

Rich

I don't have any extras or I'd toss them to you for free. Hopefully one of the folks in here can
help you out.

Hello Ricsrx, are the 84s the plus sign type wheels? I am not sure that they are right.

I will post a pix tomorrow of the lug that I need.

Maybe someone wants to bring them to NJ and install them for me too!!!!

Of course I buy beer!!! :-)
