    Anyone Need Parts?

    I can't find the battery number for the Mazda 5 remoter starter - not the key fob.

    08 Mazda5 Alarm System Problems?

    key fob replacement (switchblade) for Mazda 5 2006 touring (canada)?

    I have looked through the internet for a key fob replacement for my Mazda 5 2006 switchblade type and I can only find key companies from the USA so I am not that confident that those will work in Canadian vehicles. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where else to look or experience in...
