What model MX-5 do you have? or year? There's some aftermarket springs on Trademe for $395 in Chch, but if you just want stock springs the local wreckers would be the first port of call :D

Where abouts are you?

Shouldn't be too difficult to source some thru this forum, or Ross in Hamlton, or Mazline in ChCh.

Shermio, I cannot see those springs on Trade Me...are they listd in the MX5 section???

here you go ;) It's MX5 mart in Hamiltron http://www.mx5mart.co.nz/db.cgi?uid=def ... _records=1

$60 each I believe :D

[Edit] Crappo I misread it... those are braces... Ummm to be honest the yellow pages are a great source, there are usually wreckers with a few NA MX5s being chopped up and are usually quite cheap.

The ones I saw for $395 are http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motor ... 761057.htm

Doesn't look too pricy considering the stock springs from Mx5 Mart are $240 a set ;) [Edit] Sorry didn't realise Ross's ones were not actually springs but braces.... My bad!
