I went to Mazda here in Wellington to order a set of the small plastic
plugs that cover screwheads in the strip of black plastic trim along the
bottom of the windscreen. There are 5 small round ones, and a couple of
slightly larger oval ones. I have a round one missing, and the others are
marked to some degree or another (possibly after a windscreen replacement
a few years ago) all have faded from a black to a sort of powdery
blue-black colour. The small round ones are no problem, they are
ex-stock. The oval ones though are ex Japan only, and only in bags of 10.
At $4 each they're cheap enough, but not if I have to buy 10. Does anyone
else out there want or need to replace those plugs, and want to share the
cost of a bag of 10? Thanks Gary

Hi Guys,
Without stating the bleeding obvious, a dismantler is surely a cheaper
option. When in Hamilton recently, 'AnyMaz Spares' allowed me to collect
a handful for a few bucks (plus a few other odds &sods). Better than $4
each! There are still plenty in good condition left on the machines
after I left.
Regards,
Dez
