They gave me one when I got my car. Dont know why they did not give you one???

 

You get two tow hooks when you bought the car. They're located in the trunk.

lol 130 bucks for a tow hook. only mazdaspeed...

 

Oh, but you need the $125 support bracket too.

 

that is just... GREAT. lol. you'd have to be a big mazdaspeed fan to get a set of those.

 

Or a... You know what lol

 

I don't get it. I look & I've got the threaded nut welded in there on either side on the front and the one in the back. Anything else would what? - need to replace that hardware? Go behind that hardware so there's two nuts welded back to back? I looked for a pic of the MS bracket but can't find one, even the the MS accessories catalog, even in the Japanese version.

And the MS hooks look to me like just fancy what I've already got in the trunk. If the mounting hardware is really so strong and needed, why bother to get the fancy hook? Why not just use the cheap hook with the new bracket?

 

it may be possible. it also may be possible that the threads are different.

 

The MS bracket is required for the Mazdaspeed bumper. The bumper covers up the mounts that the stock bumper uses for the tie down hooks. The MS is stronger than the tie down hooks.

I believe it is required on most tracks.

 

ahh now I get it, it's only needed by those with the fancy MS bumper. Makes much more sense. So we already got what we need anyway. Heck I've been using the cheap one (without needed it....thankfully) for 4 yr already lol.
