Just buy the FC thermo switch. It is a direct replacement. Literally a 5 minute job.......unless you are still sequential. Ray at Malloy Mazda sells them for around $60.00 shipped.

Just call Malloy Parts and ask to speak with Ray Crowe, he knows exactly what you need and can probably tell you what you'll need to remove as well.
