LOL...I know, I know.
 
My Dad ued to own an upholstery shop with my grandparents before it burned down when I was in high school so if I go all out and reupholster the seats, I'll probably do it myself (ourselves:).
 
What I'd really like to do is the put some 01+ seats in there...those are comfy. The NA seats are a bit small...if they were maybe 10-15% bigger they would be much better.

I've heard of people across the country seeing ads for as much as $7k off of sticker for the 04 MSM from a Miata website which shall remain unnamed since I got sent to my room the last time I mentioned it...although a couple of dozen posts back I seem to recal seeing it mentioned.

Maybe check a junk yard?
 
A place in Bridgeport, CT, had a wrecked Miata and I got all kinds of knick-knakcs off of it. I mean little latches and stuff that had broken on mine for the hood prop rod, the center console latch, stuff like that.
 
You might get lucky, who knows?

I don't know of too many junkyards around here...I'd have to drive. I've tried ebay and the classifieds at the unnamed website I alluded to earlier without luck so far. Oh well, I'm in no hurry.

I actually got the plastic latch that holds the prop rod in the lowered position.
 
Aftermarket vendors sell nice struts if you're into that sort of thing.

it? Just got a 2003 Miata LS, Black w/Tan leather and top, 17K miles, 5sp, Dunlop tires, and alloy wheels. Bought it for my wife for Christmas morning! After reading about half of the posts the first question that comes to mind is how do I tell if the car I bought has the sport suspension? Thanks,Jeff

How Much Should I Offer? by jerrys2

Hi ...
I am a refugee from the Subaru Boards,
I have my eye on a '99 with 19k miles from a Chrysler dealer. It is just off eBay and the pictures and info. looked really good. The dealers is about 100 miles from me and I will inspect before making an offer. I am hoping that the dealer will be in a position to deal... we are in Massachuettts, just got 18" of new snow, it is the end of the year and how many convertibles are sold in New England in the winter ...
 
This will not be a daily driver, will use my Forester and Saab for that, if I kept my Outback I could be just like Juice ... 2 Subarus and a Miata, not as car smart or handsome of course.
 
Jerry
