well that sucks, i've never even heard of anyone putting it in aftermarket. If the dealer will do it i'd say go there. I doubt they will though.

Your accident

Very sorry to hear about your 8..

You have two options in my view, either go to the dealer and get them to quote putting it all in for you, or/ buy all the components of the system and have a very good auto electrical specialist install them for you. The latter may be the cheapest option...but carries more risk if they don`t know the car and its details. Whichever way you go, its gonna cost you a buck or two. I`d start investigating your options before you make a decision. Oh, one more possibility is to talk to a Mazda aftermarket specialist...which depends on where you live. On the West Coast you could try Racing Beat. They seem very helpful.

Good luck

Tom

Why not just trade it in on one with the traction control standard?
