I made the mistake of letting my brother drive my RX-8 yesterday during his wedding reception. I thought, "what could he possibly do in 10 minutes"? Well, besides driving it harder than I have since I've owned it he somehow managed to kick off and subsequently lose the little plastic piece that sets on top of the drivers side electric seat adjustment. I've spent an hour of so trying to find the right keyword to get a hit on google for a site that offers a replacement but have thus far failed.

Please, can someone point me in the right direction? I'd hate to see how much my local dealer would charge for one.

Ohh yeah, I think something he did may have broke one of the exhaust hangers as well because I noticed today when I hit bumps i hear that typical metal on hollow metal noise from *somewhere*. It's just too hot out today to crawl under to see just whats going on...

*argh* ...never again.

 

Mazmart.....talk to Paul

 

Does anyone else have any topic specific suggestions? I emailed Mazmart (Thanks dannobre) but would like to find another possible source or two.

 

Jeeze man, was he drunk? What the hell else did he do to your car?

 

I had a buddy of mine hit 100 in my car and then slide it across an entire 6 lane road (from a stop, not while going 100).

That was the last time he ever drives one of my cars.

 

Turns out it's only costs $1.60!

Props to finishlineperformance.com too, they were the first to reply and gave me the price and part number for local lookup.

As for my brother...I think of it as an extra wedding gift, kinda like a roller coaster ride that I have to maintain. I mean, the guy used to drag race cars all the time, now he has a family and a minivan.

Bleh.

Thanks for the help peps!

 

What are the parts numbers?

 

Ya, I'm in the same boat. Need the part number?

 

I just did the same search. To save anyone in the future some time searching: GK3J88167 02
