If I were you I'd go to Pepboys to get one, they have quality stuff (only company that I will order stuff like that besides Mazda...well that's the only part I have besides Mazda that's important). Way too simple to do, also you should proly replace the battery and ground cables if they're original. Good luck man...I'm sure you won't need it. You can pay us by putting up a vid of the car or something...just make sure you rev it!

My car is doing the same thing.... ****....I'd try takin off the starter cleaning all the terminals and then putting it back on. I just got a new battery and i need some electrical grease so i'm going to do that also. Then if it still doesn't work i'll take it down to a starter repair shop. Get it tested.... Check prices from the j-yard and then either get it rebuilt or get a used one.
