Broken door handles

Hi guys I tried searching but couldn’t find an old post about this. I know it’s a common issue with them breaking on fd’s but I was wondering which aftermarket brand has the best quality aluminum door handle or if I should go another route??

Get new handles from Mazda. I've never seen any of the aftermarket ones that really were worth it. Aftermarket just replaces the broken handle itself, not the worn and bent linkage that the handle is connected to.

I believe if you get handles from Japan they are cheaper, they don't have all the electronics the US handles have but you just transfer that over from your old handle.

Part number for the JDM handle (left side, US driver's side) is F100-59-410F
