Anyone know what they cost or what the part number is? If they're cheap enough, I have a project in mind....

I'm talking about piece 5 in this diagram (taken from the shop manual, body section, page 393).

Thanks!

no idea but you can ask your parts department at your local mazda dealership....i've asked tham about all kinda' things for the interior..and they always have a price for me:D (example the a-pillar is ~$48)

 

I emailed Trusseville a few minutes ago. Hopefully they have a reasonable price for it!

Just got this from Trussville:

"The Mazda part number is FE01-55-463-02. The list price is $79.45 and we
sell it for $67.53 plus shipping."

This is from Mazdastuff:
"FE01-55-463-02 METER HOOD $59.56 (#5 in the picture you sent)
Shipping by UPS ground in the 48 states $7
Total $66.56
State sales tax applies in Texas."

Now, here's what I'm thinking...how cool would it be to install a flip up screen that is directly above the gauges? Depending on the amount of room up there, you might be able to have it almost completely hidden with just a seam on the meter hood. I'm going to have to take my interior apart soon and see if there's enough room for a screen. I know in my Miata there would be.

I also have to figure out how to motorize it so it would flip up properly.

(EDIT: Mazdastuff price added...)

 

That would be a cool project...pics when done, pls.
