Where to get NEW brake pad M springs

Where could I get new M springs for the four piston brakes without buying new OEM pads?

Both Mazdatrix and the OEM parts catalog show that the springs don't come by themselves, but only with new OEM pads. The M springs aren't pictured in the hardware kit from Mazdatrix either (but oddly enough, the V spring for the rear pads comes in the hardware kit).

you can get them at your parts store, like autozone.

check www.autozone.com for part number.

It may not be in stock but they can usually order it and it comes the next day.

it's called a 'disc hardware kit'.

You get the M clips, and the pins.

it's about 10-15 $ I believe.

D'oh! I have no clue why I didn't think of that. It's not like M springs are RX-7 specific.
