Mazda MX5 MK2 parts help

[Malieki182]

Hi guys,

First time on here and new to the world of MX5s so please be patient

I have just bought a MK2 MX5 (S reg) and am looking to get a couple of parts for it:
Screw-in non locking petrol cap
I have a hard top for her which is locked in place with 4 catches. The catches work by depressing a button and swinging the handle, however on a few of these catches the buttons don't seem to lock the handle down so you can move the handle without pressing the button. Any ideas/do they make replacement buttons/handles to fix this issue?

Thanks for your time.

Front latches on a HT are the same as on a ST. The rear HT latches are unique to the HT though.

If you want new latches, prepare to bend over. Cheap they are not.

Autolink are very good for both new and second hand parts, always had good service from them.
