The boot set.

You need the middle boot set, about halfway down:

Or you can go to Mazda and have them look it up for you and order there.

Those boots will help. There is also some sound deadening material that belongs in there. It's that stuff mice like to use in their nests. It's found under the carpets and on the inside of the firewall. I'm not sure of the proper name.
