Ian sells them in the Bongo shop LINK HERE. I think his opening hours are 9.30am to 4.30pm Monday to Thursday, 9.30am to 1pm Friday. If you need it in a hurry, our Mazda main dealer has them for about £15.58+VAT to the public, but I doubt if they deliver (which would cost extra), so it may be worth asking your local Mazda main dealer.

I got mine from my local Mazda dealer. £18. They didn't have it on the shelf but got it in for the next day.

I fitted it today along with a couple of rear heater hoses and the (mason fitted) temp gauge now sits at 12 o'clock instead of 1 o'clock. I'm a very happy bunny.

Well the ford Ranger one has done sterling service and nowhere near as exspensive as others mentioned, but purchased three years ago, so perhaps prices have gone up :roll:
