MX5 MK1 1.6 Power steering pipe - mark999
Hi all,
the power steering return line for my 1990 MX5 has corroded and is leaking. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement at a more reasonable cost than the dealer (over £100). I've read that sometimes importing the parts can be cheaper.

Thanks
Mark

Try www.japarts.co.uk
I have visited the site, it looks ok. You will need to put in reg. no, chassis no etc to search for the specific part. I didn't go that far.

www.mx5parts. co.uk is another site, but no steering parts shown on line. They may be able to help. We have found them very good.

Hope this helps.

I've tried Japarts and mx5 parts and several breakers with no luck. Mazda are £100 for the part.
Cheers,
Mark
