Robin and I have a cute, blond, single, open heart surgery
nurse, (makes good money) friend that just got assigned to
Dick Cheney's home town of Casper Wyoming.

Population 60,000 and no Mazda
dealer. Nearest Mazda dealer is 150 miles away in
Cheyenne or Scotts Bluff Nebraska. She is on call
and her Mazda Miata turbo 2005 headlights are pointing
in the wrong direction. I am sure she can get
them pointing in the right direction with a Miata
shop manual. Does anybody have one that they can scan
the pertinent pages on and email them to me?

Here is a list of books that might have the info.
Haynes does not have anything for the latest Miata
and I checked Pep Boys and two books store chains.
No luck.

She, Robin and me would greatly appreciate it.

Mazda should put this stuff on line and it would
make it easier to repair their cars and enhance
the trade in value which would enhance the Mazda
new car sales.

We have some info on the older Miata on this site.

Hello Paul,

I am not in front of my computer now otherwise I would have checked
myself but you could try looking for the manual on www.torrentz.com
and download it with uTorrent from a site like ThePirateBay. Other
Torrent sites that are listed as sources in Torrentz.com usually
generate pop-up windows.

Torrentz.com is by the way a good source for documents about Nicola Tesla.
Try it.

I already downloaded repair manuals through this means.

Best regards from Randolph

Thanks Randolph.

They have it but I don't think I want to give them my credit card
number over the internet :)

Maybe my friend has a limited credit card she is willing to risk.

Try btjunkie.org instead of piratebay.org.  The btjunkie.org
site is free as long as you don't click the "sponsored results"
links at the bottom of the search results page.  This link
turns up a lot of responses:

I believe btjunkie.org is the last remaining free torrent site
that can be accessed from the US.  Best,

If you put in "Miata shop manual" It sends you to the same site
that wants your CC number.

I think that is the early Miata Haynes version which does
not cover the 2005.

The Mazda dealer wants $200 for the shop manual. Dumb of them.

Have you tried eBay? I've gotten factory Ford manuals for about 20-30% of
retail. Used of course.

Not yet.

There is no manual available for the Series II Miata other than the factory
manual--which is ridiculously expensive.  The best I have been able to find
is a CD with a manual in Adobe.  I have a 2004 Miata and I bought one of
these for about $15.  I can't find the website where I bought mine, but
there are more out there.  I will probably break down and buy a factory
manual, eventually.

What do you think of these books Steve? Do any of them look
like they may do the job?

Is that a pdf on the CD?

Paul,

I'm not sure which of these would apply but eBay has a selection (prices all
over the map). Maybe one of them will do the trick.
