First, the complete RX-7 Parts Fiche is located at this site: www.iluvmyrx7.com. Download it, and you'll have the part numbers for every single part on this car.

Second, for any of the stock Mazda parts, your best bet is to call Ray Crowe at Malloy Mazda. I highly doubt you'll find better prices. Here's the number: 1-888-533-3400

another option is instead of replacing it just get a gauge pod and put it over it!

You can easily reupholster it. I am currently doing it to my panel. You may also want to look into getting a gauge pod to mount over it.

Not sure what the parts book will call it, but you could post a Want to Buy (WTB) in the parts for sale section or check with this forum member for a used one. Fritz is reliable (check the good guy/bad guy section) and has reasonable prices.
I refer to it as the driver's side 'A' Pillar cover and he'll know what you mean.
Good luck.

PM Fritz Flynn - he has TONS of used FD parts, and I'm sure he's got that. Should be VERY easy to find one used. It's the A-pillar trim, if you need a name for it.
