Another approach that you can use is looking up the part on the MazdaTrix website, and use this little decoding algorithm to convert MT's part number into Mazda's OEM part #

If MT Part # = XX-YYYY-ZZZZ, then the Mazda OEM # = ZZZZ-XX-YYYY

Example: MT # 13-2200-N370 (Turbo inlet duct, 89-91 FC)

translates to Mazda part # N370-13-220 (same part)

In this case, the last digit in the YYYY series was a zero, so just we ignore it. Normally this digit will be a letter, which signifies some Mazda revisions to that part (A, B, C, etc). If it's any number OTHER than zero, include it as if it was a letter.
