I recently had the misfortune of needing to call a mazda dealer to find the price of 1 plastic centre cap for the honeycomb wheels. it is an understatement to say i was horrified and nearly suffered cardiac arrest when the gentleman on the other end informed me it would cost me $55 USD + tax.<P>does anyone know if this is correct and if so does anyone have one i can beg, borrow or steal?<P>thanks guys.

I don't know what the price is but come on man it's not like he quoted $600 or something like that? You must have a weak heart if something that is $50 almost gives you a heart attack.

Do you have a pic of what you need? Or does anyone? fifty bucks does sound a lil high.

What he needs is the little round plastic cap with the Mazda emblem that goes in the center of the rim. $55 for that is ridiculous! I mean, it's a piece of friggin plastic that serves no real function.<P>Muzdog: Did you lose yours or is it just that the metalic paint is worn off?<P>If it's the paint, you could just paint it yourself. If it's missing, you'd be better off at a junkyard.

if it is missing I can send you a new one for 25$

yeh its missin. i just bought the rims yesterday from a guy who posted them on the for sale board. $55 dollars for a round piece of plastic. i only paid $100 for the rims, imagine if i needed all 4.........<P>i think the scrappys need a searchin. <P>cheers guys.<P> <BR>fyi - the piece i need is the plastic cap that covers the hole in between the 4 holes.<BR>$55 my arse.

yeah, best bet is to check out the junk yards. When i first got my mx, i was missing two of them, and i went to the local junk yard, and got three of them for i think $5 total, and that was 2 years ago

$10 and shipping and ill let u have one of mine.

haha, i had this same shock when I tried ordering the plastic door speaker covers...they wanted 100$cdn a piece! So for 200$ I had a custom job done...methinks I'm one of the only mx's with 6x9's in the doors, heh.

I paid $355 for a rear hatch garnish form mazda !

I think the parts department at Mazda is out to lunch. I needed an axle for my 92, and they wanted over $800.00 Cdn for it! I ended up buying an aftermarket one (with a lifetime warranty!) for just over a hundred bucks.

HOW did you get that rim looking so CLEAN! I have a set of those that are really nasty. I want to clean them up and put them on my car.
