am I on the right path?
I want to change out the thermoswitch and install the miata thermoswitch. am I on the right path to find it. do I really have to take the alternator off. has anyone done it without removing alternator? can I see the thermoswitch in any of these pics? also if I want to replace some of the intake hoses with hard pipes what size couplers and clamps do I need for sure? I found too many conflicting threads on this? I am thinking of this site

The thermoswitch is not visible in any of the pictures because it's underneath some things.
In the center of the first pic, there is a an oil-soaked green/black plastic checkvalve. Under it, there is the bright forest green plastic connector that goes into the water pump housing. The thermoswitch is a similar looking part below the forest green one.
Like Mahjik said, removing the alternator gives you some access from the side to wrench it off.
