Where can i find Windshield weatherstripping?

The strips on the LEFT and RIGHT of the windshield are pitted, cracked and the under steel is rusting. I can't find these in my vic british or mazdatrix catalog.... anyone know where to get them?

Um... he just said they don't have them in the catalog

f1 - I'd give both (either?) of those places a call, i know they have a lot of parts not listed in their catalog.. or maybe that "mazda exchange" or whatever-the-hell-the-name of it is that specializes in used mazdas....

I replaced both of mine, in fact every piece of trim on the outside of the car so far except the welt around the sunroof, and that's next

No none of it is 'cheap' but you have to see it to believe it, the car looks NEW, well worth the cost. Lots of comments from people that think that it is new, or almost new now.

oh yeah, I ordered every piece through the dealer, there was a post somewhere that mentioned a dealer that gave a discount over full retail, you would have to search for that thread.

Think this is the discounted dealer Asherwood mentioned. I only copied the text so I can't give credit to the poster.

Malloy Mazda Parts

I have to thank Terry Norris for giving me this tip. He answered
a tread and told me about Mr. Ray Crowe, 1-888-533-3400,
at Malloy Mazda in Woodridge, VA.

"I priced a TPS at the Mazda Dealer local and they quoted me 429.00 for an 89 GTU Non-Turbo. Auto zone wanted 299.00 and it was special order after-market. I called Mr. Ray Crowe and bought a Genuine Mazda TPS for 287.50 and that included shipping."

This is the guy to see. You could also try Mazdatrix.
