Rear hatch shocks
Alright, I found a thread on this topic awhile back that was rather inconclusive so I figured I'd ask this question again to see if anyone has learned anything new regarding this. The shocks on my rear hatch are broken and need to be replaced, however the only place I can seem to locate them is on mazdatrix, and thats $150 a piece, which I find more than a bit pricey. I can also easily find the rear shocks for 1st gen's for around $20. If anyone knows the best way to replace these without spending $300 (plus shipping) please let me know.
Note: It seems looking in your local junkyard is the best way to find these however some people (such as me) are unfortunate enough for there local yards to not have any 2nd gens at all.
