If anyone LOCAL has a spare one, or is selling one, or knows how to get them super cheap somewhere, let me know. Everywhere ive searched they are Disgustingly over priced. I live in Whittier so anyone within driving distance hit me up!!!

I have a few

Dirtyswiff 05-17-2015 06:25 PM

Perfect! Can I get a price reference?

IRPerformance 05-18-2015 10:04 AM

$15. Shipping will be like $3. If you needed something else I could throw it in for like $12 total.

$15...... I dunno how you sell it for that price because that thing is like in the $40- $60 range anywhere i've looked and i've done some hunting. I'm sure a lot of people in this forum would love that price if the Knob is oem, I'll be sure to send em towards you. I've went on your website and you don't advertise that kind of stuff. Do you deal parts on the side? and I was wondering if you also had the top clip part for the door of the armrest compartment seen in the picture below.

$60 is nuts for a knob but I believe it for Mazda oem parts. Some stuff is reasonable, other stuff they think is made of gold or something. I have the clip but I am only selling the entire arm rest together. $50 for that. I have a few parts cars around the shop. I buy them from time to time. If they are not worth fixing, too banged up or crashed, I part them.

Ok i understand, thanks for hooking me up with this, I just refuse to pay that high of a price, I'm also going to buy all weather floor mats, another overpriced product. Lol but Anyway, how do I proceed purchasing the knob from you?

Bump! Still trying to look for a fan knob.

If the reason you're looking for one is that the 'stem' is cracked, you can fix it with a fuel injector O-ring from a Toyota 5EFE engine (Tercel/Paseo). Maybe others, I haven't tried.

The first O-ring in this picture

Just slip it on. It's a tight fit, but it has held for 5 years for me. I forgot I had repaired it in fact.

Hey! That's a great substitution. I'm glad it worked for you, It's funny because I've tried to look for anything in my garage to serve the same purpose that o ring does to no luck. I wish I had a tercel fuel injector lying around lol

$30 seems super high for 1 knob imo..

Bump! After two failed attempts at receiving an oem fan knob from two separate members, I am still on the hunt for one I'm asking everyone doing a part out and nothing so far. So if anyone has a extra 04 hvac fan knob laying around let me know. Mine is so destroyed I can't even use any form of substitution or anything of that sort to make it work. I have attached a pic below
