Probably have better luck on Mazda Rotary Club or FDUK. Stick a wanted thread up.

Also keep an eye on ebay. You'll need to keep an eye out as they'll only be available if people break a car or swap.

They do cost a bit but need them to relocate the battery when the engine goes in.

Why can't you just put it in the boot? You lose a little bit of space but it's not like an FD has much anyway smile Mine's in the boot.

Can you send me a pic of how yours is located. I am looking for a smart install and thought it would look cleaner to have in in the storage unit.

I agree it'd be cleaner in one of the bins smile I'll get a photo this weekend.

Mine's been relocated to the boot too:



No real impact on space.

Mine are Ganador, I have the ones with built in indicators. Are you sure they're discontinued? Have you tried rhdjapan.com or nengun?

Yeah new Ganador ones are expensive but very good.

Two brass 90 degree brackets from Wickes! The Feed bumper has two holes for fixing their number plate holder on so I just attached it to that.
