What is the best way to find a small part?
Hi everyone, as I progress with my restoration, I need to find the "correct part" that I either broke or lost.
Every non-stock piece I used over the years stand out like a sore thumb now!
I kinda found the part numbers I want, but some a NLA or don't fit my 88 GXL.
I tried to find a junked 2nd generation nearby but no luck so far.
Should I try listing them on this forum? I see that there is a great willingness to help on this site!
Here are the four pieces I am looking for:
Cargo bin attachment screw, 9986-50-525B. About an inch long with a greenish coating. Need 1
Carpet attaching plastic rivet, 68-865D. Grey in color, about 3/4" round head. Need 1
Pop-up push rivets, 69-885C. They go to the black plastic panels in front of the radiator. Once installed you only need to push the button and it will pop up allowing the rivet to be removed! Need five or so
Mounting screw 9986-50-416B. The speaker covers in the rear use these plastic screws and washers, mine are gray. Need 3
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

9986-50-525B is available new from Mazda, still 90's price too
9986-50-416B is NLA, but 9986-50-416 is available, same thing instead of dark plating, it will be gold zinc
the 68-865D is NLA, but they have 69 of them in stock, S083-68-865A-09
and 865C is G032-68-865A-09 which Mazda also has

Would you be able to do me a favour and upload a picture of this screw when you get a chance? If it's the one I'm thinking of then I also need a few, but the dealership previously told me they couldn't find the right one.

Is there a particular Mazda website you use to order from?

if i didn't have that deal though, since you have the part number, you can find out the best deal for you though. in 2024 you need factor in tax and shipping
and maybe shipping time too. its often quicker to get stuff from Japan.

J9 is literally the best.

Cargo bin screw
the screw in its natural environment.
the hole that needs the correct screw to match the others.
The screw head color, blackish olive green.
25mm thread length that goes into the fiberglass support.
I hope someone with a parts car can get me one!

Hi, here are the pics you requested, it would be a shame to put a generic screw in!

I had to replace a few of them around the interior (on the sill plates for example) with generic ones I found online. The generic ones fit okay (except that they're Philips head instead of JIS, so I need two screwdrivers in my storage bin instead of one), but the fact that they look a bit different just bothers me.

Awesome, that's exactly the one I was thinking of. Now I can place an order.

Sill plate screws are different
Nengun Performance
Out of the five parts I ordered they only had these three.The 9079-60-616 is listed as a shaft bolt & washer. It is not the period correct hinge bolt that I need.
It is a nice SS wide flange bolt that I am sure is strong enough. Perhaps I will order 3 more and replace all of the original bolts.
Which I then can sell on eBay for $$$$!!!
The 9078-60-612 caught my eye because it does have the "8" on the bolthead! But it has a captive washer on it, not the wide flange I was hoping for. They list it as a 'Tapping screw & washer". Oh well.
The 9986-50-525B is the correct screw I needed for the missing one on my cargo bay. The color is slightly off but close enough.
These screws do not match the ones used on the sill plates, those do not have a flange on them!
The search continues!
