Seat Back Bar Covers Chromed MX5 Mk3/3.5/3.75 Reviews

4.5 Rating 62 Reviews

High polished chrome covers for the style bars on the Mk3, 3.5 & 3.75. Supplied as a pair, these are a perfect fit and are very easy to install.Fits all convertible and retractable hardtop Mk3, 3.5 & 3.75 models, 2005>2015Fitting Tip: As the product name implies, these are covers. They are not replacement trims. We have designed them this way because the Mazda supplied replacement trims really are hard work to fit. They are a very tight fit over the top of your existing trims. As with anything self adhesive, preparation is very important. You must make sure that the surface of the original covers is completely free from silicone trim cleaner or any form of polish. Use surgical spirit or the like to clean the area first. Then make sure that both the new cover and the original are both at a temperature of at least 20 degrees C, the warmer the better as heat activates the adhesive. The 3Ms tape supplied is designed for this exact job, and if applied correctly is almost impossible to remove! A further fitting tip is that once the covers are applied to car, cable tie them around the hoops in two or three places and leave overnight. This will give the adhesive time to cure properly.

“Great roll bar covers , as with other reviews I decided to use gorilla glue as the 3M stickers didnÆt look that reliable. After applying i held them together over night with cable ties , weather has been hot so think that helped also, took ties off and these things arenÆt moving. Would highly recommend they look great.”

“Ordered these with the vent rings, heater rings and dashboard rings with the intention of lifting the interior and what a difference. Granted, taste is subjective but personally, that level of chrome brings everything to life and any more would be unnecessary, bordering on tacky. So a word about fitting; after reading mixed reviews I decided to forget about the tape supplied and use sticky double sided pads, the sort you get from an office supplies store. I covered the inside with lots of the little pads and pressed the covers home, Hey presto! Works a treat and going they are not moving at all. I was a little worried that the extra thickness of the pads would affect the fit and make the cover sit a little ‘proud’, but they are a nice snug fit. Hope that helps!”

“I have just fitted these bar covers and they have transformed the look of my car. I followed the fitting advice on this site and they have stuck on fine. the only thing i noticed on my pair is that on the insides there some moulding sprues that stuck out proud of the fixing tape, that might account for some people having problems getting them to stick, i just carefully trimed the sprues off with a knife and they stuck perfectly.”

“These really enhance the look of the car. They are easy enough to fit, taking care to have them correctly positioned before getting the adhesive strips in contact with the original coverings, then squeeze them on well and hold in place with cable ties. I fitted mine one afternoon during the recent heat wave and they were well and truly stuck when the ties were removed the next morning.As usual, great service from MX5 Parts.”

“After reading a lot of the previous reviews I was a little hesitant about buying these as it had been suggested that they were difficult to fit/ achieve adhesion but I went ahead and bought them. First purchase from this company and very impressed with the service, an easy to use site, good communication and fast delivery. When the covers arrived we went straight ahead to fit them and they went on the car in minutes, no problems at all. The inside of each cover is lined with 3M adhesive tape and it was a simple matter of removing the backing from the tape, slipping them on and firmly pushing into place, no problems at all and they look fantastic fitted on our black hardtop. Overall a great product and great service, I shall certainly use this company again.”
