PS Might pickup Dash Emblem when I'm there in June

any pics of those accessories?

My scanner is down at present - but brochure is downloadable in PDF form at Mazda UK site. www.mazda.co.uk I believe.

The bonnet dampers are hood struts !!!

Just feed the response form with any name and email you like.

Bonnet Stay Damper ~$187.00

Illuminated 6sp Gear shift knob ~$187.00

Sports Exhaust ~$850.00 <-- I wonder what kind of exhaust is replaced from OEM?

The Reversing Aid are sensors that are installed in the rear bumper ~$510.00

Some interesting stuff in there..

Visiting family in England this June - will visit local Mazda dealer - have already emailed them. I'll report back to forum after the visit. I'm really interested in the hood struts. Love them in my SLK320 - should be an option here. John

I really like the key for some reason it stands out. I mean I don't know what the normal key looks like since I'm holding off for the 05's but the key is sweet.

So how would I get hold of this stuff in the wilds of central TX? Does anyone import UK accessories, or could they be mail-ordered from the US? (The currency exchange rate is pretty painful these days, but I might bite the bullet for a dash emblem if such were available.)

I'm pretty sure this will take you right to the pdf...
