Mazda parts...junk yards?

I need to find a replacement exterior door handle for my FD.

Is there a local junkyard or used parts place that specializes in Mazda around the Bay Area?

Or anywhere good online to find parts like that?

One of the largest Mazda only wrecking yards in the country is in Rancho Cordova.

Mazdatrix sells oem parts, but some are kinda pricey.

i would hardly call it large but yea they do specialize in rotaries and have a few FDs in their yard but the door handles are pure junk and probably all either broken or sold already so i would see about a new one. i remember there being a group buy for new handles for about $125 in the GB section a while back.

GB's Still there, I bought two new handles from that, because mine got CF stickers on them that suck, and I wanted a new set... before the current ones broke... but they're still in 1 piece and don't stick like my '94's did... so maybe they're not in such bad shape... if you can wait till I get the new ones from the GB I'd be willing to let them go cheap....
