helen what year is that 626.i got to an s reg estate the other day,got all the relays/fuses big and main,/plastic scrivets/air solenoid valve/hose clips of all sizes.and the dashboard vents,the black swivel ones,they are a direct replacement for the bongo .plastic bungs for the windscreen wiper mounting nuts.front and rear speakers if fitted. dashboard clock(digital)in a binnacle and is fitted in a pocket under/above the radio.
think thats about it.

Hi Ady
Sorry, no idea....it was just a car sitting outside the breakers when I took our friend round some scrappies...I just happened to notice what it was....a saloon car with Mazda on it, and 626 badge.....To be honest, I don't know one car from another these days, as they all come out of the same mould, and the badge goes on when they decide what to call it. Someone then pays a TV motoring show lots of money to say how good it is, and everyone clamours for it
Totally unlike the early 70s and before, when cars had style

yer------bring back the allegro,--------or all agro as we used to call them,real class especially the vanden plas,with the cocktail cabinet in wallnut.
oh and the square steering wheel.

Hi
Oh Ger-hosh...they were REALLY bad....and as ugly as those BMW things they call the Mini....
Cheers

thanks everyone
a friendly bongo owner came round today with a 95 plate,and he actually let me remove one of his mazda front fogs for comparison, the ones i have will fit,well nearly,
three of the bolt holes fit,the fourth will fit with a little mild modification.

so if looking for front fogs i can confirm that the ones fitted to a s reg 626 are good.
will post pics when they are fitted,
