Part # for the top of the door lock pull surrounds?

Hi guys, does anyone have a parts manual or know the Mazda part number for these lock surrounds? I needed to order up a set (if no one has a spare set) and Mazda dealer parts books only go back to 1986.

Thanks!

They don't offer but one color anymore? Most likely black I would guess.

i only looked up the 79-80, and it only lists one color, so maybe they are all black? i thought they were like 84-85 where they are different colors, i think its a different part number 84-85 too

Actually stopped by my local Mazda dealer today, 5 minutes later they were on order for around $6 and will be at the parts desk tomorrow.

How cool is that?

I am used to dealing with Triumphs (good parts suppliers but you come to yearn for the sound of UPs) and Jensen (challenging), so this is a revelation!

Oh no, I expect everything for cheap next day delivery directly from Mazda now. Grin.

A bit later than your TR3, but mechanically very-very-very similar.

nice! hopefully they kept the diving experience, the Tr3 was really great that way, no distractions.

Hi. It is only slightly more grown up, no elbows out and dragging on the pavement like the TR3. Still a rough and tumble sports car however.

Hi, she is better in pictures than in person, but thanks.

I bought it in 2009, sat in a carport for 25+ years in Orange County where I live. Looked like this when I picked her up. Rebuilt the engine and installed an overdrive transmission (with help from a shop), new ignition, rebuilt the carbs, overhauled the suspension and make it more adjustable which also lowered her slightly (which makes a big difference in how she handles), some very minor welding on bumps and bruises and to reinforce her differential mounts. Lots is missing trim and details that I haven't gotten around to, and while she needs some sorting out still, she is a happy car that has that "come on, go faster" feeling to her. Fun to work on since the engineering is very straightforward.
