A colleague's 2015 MX5 is mostly useless right now with a stuck window regulator on the driver side. The window regulator is stuck right in the middle (the passenger side was replaced last year when it failed in the same manner). This seems to be a known (if not common) complaint.

I've ordered one from a local Mazda dealer who failed to deliver it (despite confirming multiple times it is available next day) and feed me a different rubbish excuse each time I call.

MX5 parts don't have stock.

Local motor factors (Allparts, GSF, ECP etc.) can't help.

Is anyone able to suggest a source I may have missed?

That's helpful, and a really useful link; thank you.

By sheer fluke I'll be near a Mazda dealer this afternoon who confirm the part is on back order but they have one sitting on the shelf!

That’s exactly what we did; identical failure of passenger side last year. Milcars in Bushey saved the day, local dealer made a complete mess and fibbed about it rather than saying “oops, sorry”.
