Ummm, Victoria British sells a line of replacement carpets, seat upholstery, dash covers and other misc interior bits plus exterior panels and other trim bits. For the mechanical parts, there is still good parts availability for 1st gens at your local parts store.

mazda actually still has lots of stuff. in 1998 you could almost buy the whole car, its not cheap, but if you're restoring the car right, the mazda parts are the only way to go

I'm looking for the little plugs that cover the screws on the passenger side door. I saw some on ebay a few days back but at the time didn't know that I needed them. :P Any ideas for something like that? Junkyard?

Thanks.

Check the FAQ!

www.racingbeat.com
www.mazdatrix.com
www.victoriabritish.com - You need to order the catalog

as well as local part stores such as NAPA and CanadianTire.

If you have a part you can't find at the above, post about it and we'll see if we can find it for you.

As for your little plugs... The only way to get them other than a junkyard is buying the entire armrest from victoria british - bloody expensive. Maybe someone on the forum has an extra set in their parts car.... what colour armrest, what year is it from, and does it have power windows? (a picture would be ideal if you can figure out a place to host it.. there are different armrests)
