Hi chaps

Just wondering if anyone had a rear tail trim piece for between the lights. Part number FA0750840C

Unfortunately it’s now discontinued by Mazda

Thanks

Victor

Are they actually discontinued, or is your dealership being lazy? I bought one a few months ago

Otherwise you'd be best off importing a 2nd hand one from another country aye

Definitely discontinued unfortunately fella.. tried 3 separate Mazda dealers and also tried to import from a Japanese parts dealer who would have bought from Mazda over there. They cancelled stating part discontinued.

There’s a couple of second hand ones on eBay at the moment but they aren’t in a great shape 😂

Just seeing if anyone on here has one they have no use for !

Hi Vic,
Do you have a part number ?
If you do, why not try the guys at Mazda headquarters in Crossways Dartford, they tried all the dealers across Europe for me when I was looking for a fuel tank.

Oh whoa. I must have had one of the last ones, if not the last :o

That's frustrating though aye. Atkins reckon they have some, but aren't cheap. Do you know anyone in the States who might be able to check a local dealer if they're available over there?

Mazda crossways says there isn’t any available in Europe. Going to try the US. If no luck then I’m gonna leave it. Not paying these other companies over £200 for one. That’s mad 😂.. an Australian company is selling them for over £400 😅
