Where to get wiper switch other then Icemark?

My wipers only work on one setting and I figure it's the switch. I tried contacting Mark via PM and email a couple of weeks ago and never got a reply from both. I was wondering if anyone knows another place that has the switches at about the same price as Marks. Or, if u read this Mark, PM me.

I actually did, PM'd first then went to mazdamark.com and emailed the address from the site. Still no answer. I figure he must be real busy or maybe doesn't have any in stock.

actually I have replied both PMs and email several times...Sorry if you didn't see them.

And I try and have a good mix of candy, as an added thank you when I can. Although I did send a couple orders without candy this month as I was all out and didn't want to hold the order just for some candy to add into the box.

Damn, I don't have either the PM or emails. Anyway, Mark, I'm in SF and was wondering if you install these also. I'd much rather take a nice drive up the 101 and have someone who knows what they're doing install it then pay for shipping and maybe f!@# it up. Is that possible? I'll even bring some candy for you.

Sorry you didn't get them, as I mentioned in the past replies, I let my CA automotive mechanic/shop permit expire this last January, as I was not doing too many drive ups (and just couldn't justify it and the damm hazard waste costs), so at this time I can no longer take drive ups/walk ups.

And toss in working in the shop only 4 days a week, it makes it even harder to see drive ups. As it is I had to do some drastic measures on the website just to cut down on my phone time (I was spending more time on the phone with people wanting general RX-7 help than working in January).

So its pretty tough to get walk in's and have time to do everything else. Sorry.

Sorry Alan, I did reply to you as well, but just have not replied to your second email, yet... the one you said that your Outlook is all messed up.

Anyway as far as the wiper switches with rears, I just sold out of my last one of the batch today (actually I sold out all 5 I got in Monday).

But yes you can send you switch in and I can rebuild it for you.

BTW: this came back from your email:
Message from yahoo.com.

Sorry Alan, I did reply to your earlier email.

Anyway as far as the wiper switches with rears, I just
sold out of my last one of the batch today (actually I
sold out all 5 I got in Monday).

But yes you can send you switch in and I can rebuild
it for you.

However I am no longer taking drive up customers.
This may change as the demand increases, but at this
time, I do not have the time to be able to take walk
up/drive ups.

Thanks,

Mark

I'll send you an extra pack...

Gee guys, didn't know candy was such a big deal.

In fact anyone that really wants some, and has ordered from me in the past, feel free to PM me about it and I'll send you a pack.

Thanks again!
