Question Miata Thermostat Mod.

Hey guys, I have been researching about the Miata Therostat switch for our FD's and just was wondering what year miata do I need to get one from?

They sell them in the cooling system section in Mazdaperformance.com
http://www.mazdaformance.com/miata1.htm
and I just want to know which one to order

Thanks, Justus

I found the sensor here(after searching): http://www.partsamerica.com/PartDeta...Number=2011621
I would rather have the mechanic I work with order it with his discount so I get it for less.
I just don't know what year of Miata I need to order one from.
Thanks
Justus

But what was year of the Miata it went to??
Its $32 from partsamerica.com and I am not sure that includes shipping, $14.99 from a local place sounds a lot better, but I don't know which one to get.
Thanks, Justus
