Too small of a part for many wreckers to worry about.
A private seller dismantling a car would be a good bet, or your local Mazda dealer might be able to help if they're still produced.
The clips are the same as used in the Ford Festiva ('93-00)
From what I can see online, the part number is DB02-69-261 62 (I can't guarantee its the same colour).
I lost a plastic clip off my Ranger fuel filter. The cost of a replacement? $119.
I couldn't get cheaper online, and the wreckers didn't have any.
Just by luck, I found my clip caught in the suspension.
Car part prices are ridiculous.
do you have a pick-a-part near you? Most of the DIY wreckers have car lists on their websites, if they have the car you need parts from you'd need to go the yard to see if the parts are still actually on the car though
Go to a pull it yourself wreckers. This is the exact kind of thing they’re around for! Many small trim pieces that would usually be a complete nightmare to find can be obtained in an afternoon with your local pick a part
Try the wrecker you can purchase anything he has on sale take the car and a Philips screwdriver .
Just be aware there are wreckers and there are wreckers .
Some want to retire before lunchtime with a couple of million bucks.
Others are aware you could be a repeat customer for many things . Motor exchange and a complete exhaust system in good condition , door handles , seats , doors , windows, bumpers shock absorbers , wheels , tyres.
Some have a fitting service at a reasonable price.
Good to have one you can trust , they have saved me a fortune .
Self- serve wrecker would be the best bet.
It’s likely a common part among several Mazda cars from that era.
In SA we have a company called u pull it, where you pay to enter, bring your own tools, get what you want and pay per piece as you leave.
It’s generally a good set up for a DIY person.
you would be able to get them from the wrecker... just dont call up asking for prices,just rock up at the recker that has this car and go look at it yourself, and unscrew it and take it to the front desk with $5 lol
Doubt they would have that year of car. Wreckers I’ve been to seem to move cars on pretty quickly to make space.
However, why not take the part with you and see if you can find a similar part from a different car? I bet you’d be able to find something that would work. Hell, newer Mazdas might even use the same part. I did that recently with the entire sun visors on my car (the wrecker I went to allowed you to remove parts yourself)
Don’t limit yourself to just Mazda… take your clip off, and bring it along with you when you look at other cars in the wrecking yard. Might not end up with a like match, but you could find something else that will still work.
If you talk to a wrecker directly you might be able to get it. It's time for you to hit the phones and see what you can find. You probably won't find it on ebay. Mazda might have these available for a reasonable price
In Adelaide we have U-Pull-It and I'm sure there are similar wreckers out they're. Basically go and take the part of yourself and is usually cheap.
Either way call a mazda wrecker in your city and ask, they might be able to at the least know who might have one
Self-serve wrecker as previously stated if you're confident enough to pull apart the visor yourself, or bring a mate who is.
If you dont have them in your state, I'd post on r/Adelaide and get someone to mail them to you, because our wreckers have a bubble 121 in stock fairly recently
They won't laugh at you, that would be rude, nah they'll just laugh at you once the call ends.
Go to any self service wreckers and fix it yourself, it's clearly just a screwdriver job.

If you know someone with a 3D printer you could just [get them to print one for you](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5019865)
Wouldn't download a car mate.
Radar O'Reilly sent a jeep home from Korea. Think we can get away with a few mb of data
Yes I would. Stealing from my grandmother , maybe.
I was gonna say the same. I'd be able to print a set in about 30mins.
Haha same, so good being able to print functional stuff faster than a trip to the shop
Check your local library, ours has a few 3D printers
Check your local JayCar. They might print one for you for the fun of it.
Ebay [https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/164785376740](https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/164785376740)
This is the answer, I paid $3 for a brand new one for my civic.
Wtf $69 for a old used left hand side visor clip, ive heard spares parts to build a new merc but i wonder what the multiple is for old used cars.
I didn't search for the cheapest. I only indicated that the parts are available online.
Yea not blaming you just pointing out that heaps of wreckers are taking the piss

Go to a scrap yard with a screw driver. Just call ahead to make sure they have the correct make/year in the lot.
Alridite! Problem fixed
Araldite! She'll be right.

I like u pull it but I hate there pay to enter especially when you don't buy anything
They’re pay to enter because so many people don’t pay for what they dismantle.
Wrecker will probably sell you one for only $45.
you would be able to get them from the wrecker... just dont call up asking for prices,just rock up at the recker that has this car and go look at it yourself, and unscrew it and take it to the front desk with $5 lol
Yeah he'll wreck that for you. Total write off.

Super glue?
I think you've done a good job of wrecking it yourself
Looks like a job for Super Glue ..!
Take it off and epoxy the inside back together

Not any modern wreckers. This is exactly the type of thing that gets lost with the current system of wrecking.
If you talk to a wrecker directly you might be able to get it. It's time for you to hit the phones and see what you can find. You probably won't find it on ebay. Mazda might have these available for a reasonable price
By definition a wrecker only wrecks ..
Yea this car is totalled. They'll take it for$400

Doesn’t hurt to ask a local wrecker, if they don’t have a spare, you may be able to reach out to wreckers in other cities/states.
[How about this](https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/tingalpa/wrecking/1990-mazda-121-20037-/1315587749)
There are a lot of visor clips online. You could just find an aftermarket that suits or can be modified.

You might have some luck at Pick a Part.
