SA Temperature sensors - anyone have a source for new?

Does anyone know where to pick up new temperature sensors for an SA seeing as Mazda has discontinued them?

The last one I bought was from Napa about 5 years ago. Had no issues with it. Bought it for my 80.

You wouldn't happen to know the make and model of the sensor would you?

I've seen some aftermarket ones online, but don't know what the specs are for the old one or the new ones they are selling.

I couldn't find the box so I found it on their website. I confirmed that it was a different part number than an S2 or S3. Hope this helps.

Have you tried RockAuto.com? They're pretty good for stock on little odds & bods.

RockAuto has 3 different sensors, all 3 of which look correct for an SA. They're also cheaper than the NAPA pricing, but keep in mind you'll have to pay for shipping.

Links to two of them:

RockAuto - WVE/AIRTEX/WELLS 1T1172
