    Wow so you guys have to open the window and move the mirror by hand? Or just a different smaller internal adjustment knob?

    I find it strange that the US market missed a lot of things we got. It's almost always the other way around. Colour coded bumpers, higher speedo + tacho, those mirrors, 13" wheels not 12" .... Weird...
    Yeah unless you have the power mirrors you have to roll the window down to adjust the mirror. Rain or shine, hot or cold. The US got left out when it came to Festivas/121s/Prides options. If you want to make some side $ round up some hard to get stuff and sell them to us option starved members.

      Oh yeah power... I didn't know that was an option on any Festiva's here or there though I haven't really looked into it before. Bummer about having to wind down the window to get to them, esp the passenger side.

      Yeah you know that's not a bad idea, I could gather up quite a stockpile of goodies for you guys. Depending on how cheap I could get parts from the wreckers here, probably wouldn't be worth my while from a financial viewpoint. I can see it now *sending Festiva 60 mirrors to USA*

        You might be surprized, some of this stuff brings some good money. Ive shipped to AUS a lot with some ebay transactions and the rates and times in route are decent. I think some people here will agree with me on the demand for the options.

            Interesting....

            I'll give this one some thought guys. As it is I have some business at a wreckers in the future anyway (need 2 new driver side doors, front wiper arms, aspire brakes/rear axle/handbrake etc etc) so I can have a snoop around for other things whilst I'm at it. Hypothetically, name few a few "shipping friendly" parts Festiva owners in the states might be interested in.

                I would pay good money for a 1990 Mazda 121 grill and headlight/corner light set up.I'd trade you a nice white US Festiva rear spoiler for the set up!

                  Yeah the clear corners and the side marker lights on the front fenders. Also be interested in dash trays, mudflaps, full shifter consoles, etc etc, I need to look at some AUS festiva versions and I could probably add to the list quite a bit.

                  Oh yeah Ill take all the dash clock bezels you can find. Ill call dibs on them

                        clusters, like fresh mentioned, clock bezels, mazda 121 wheel caps and mud flapps as shown here, although it may not pay as well, some people may be interested in buying 13" wheels, especially alloys, so quote a price, if you had mazda alloys with the mazda logo from a 121, esp if they where 13", that may be of value to some, half colored mazda 121 bumpers like this would be valuable to some, factory fog lights (if they were available there, dont think they where here, but correct me if I'm wrong), take pictures of some mazda 121 interiors, some may be interested if you could pull the seat covers from those cars if theyre different
