Mine's a manual. That part # database would be awesome! If my car's PO comes thru with those X-14 & X-05 part numbers I'll post them up here.

Specifically I'm looking for the X-14 & X-05 for now. I could have sworn I saw a post on this site some time ago that did just that, included pictures of each connector and provided links to vendors where you can buy some of them, but I'm having no joy finding it again with the search tool.

Perhaps these links are helpful:

The two links with the annotated harness are awesome, but don't really give part numbers, just the connector numbers Mazda assigned to them (X-05, B1-01, etc), they're for a 93 as well. There are differences between the 93 and 94/95 harnesses.
I'm going over the others again to see if I missed any.
Best case scenario, we somehow find all the part numbers and can just send a list to TE/AMP, Sumitomo, and Yazaki and say "I'll take all of these please" and then buy a ton of wire - voila fresh custom harnesses.

You might try wiring specialties - they have section where you can search by the number of connectors, and they have photos.

It may be you find the same connector, but in a different vehicle. That is how I found a very hard to find connector for the stock Oil Pressure sensor

Update. MazdaUSA, in the nicest way possible, answered my query with, and I'm paraphrasing "if you want individual connectors you can buy entire harnesses, no we don't want to look in the archives to figure out what we ordered back in 1992".
So the search continues. I'm learning a new job and finishing my own harnesses right now so haven't been able to continue the search for the connector part #s. I will get back to it though!

I skimmed through and I don't think I saw this, but I always get connectors from Corsa Technic. They've usually had what I needed, and they've also researched and found what I needed if they didn't already have it. There are a couple other sites too, but Corsa has been the best place for me so far.

Yeah there hasn't been too much that they haven't had, but they did have to track down the driver's side window switch connector for me, and also the connector for the RX-8 radiator fans. And it looks like after they do that, they add it to their site.

I made a connector p/n list on a single web page when I was building an emission harness awhile ago (used this thread among others, and my own research).
