Mazda2 - Fiesta Interchangeable Parts

[masonjar]

I have been searching everywhere for a list of parts that are interchangeable between the two sibling cars, but I haven't been able to come up with anything concrete.
Does anyone know for sure which parts are interchangeable between the Mazda2 and the Ford Fiesta?

According to Mazda only 4 parts are the same. Wheel bearings and a few suspension components. Pretty much all useless stuff.

Time and time again I here the sway bars are interchangeable but idk anyone who has done it.

IIRC, the shocks/struts are interchangable. That is, you need to have Fiesta shock/spring combo for it to work, but it bolts up. Not sure if you can mix/match an m2 spring with a Fiesta strut.

On the 2011 + models there is a difference we have found with the spring perch on the front struts. Everything else was the same. I am not sure if this is the case on the earlier models or not.

I know you can definitely put the CS rear bar on a Fiesta. Two of my friends have done that, and love it. Apparently some of the TB under-frame braces also will bolt on to the Mazda 2. There were people definitely interested in the CS adjustables too, but I haven't seen any follow up as to whether anyone went for a set. That FRPP handling pack upgrades Fiestas with new struts and lowering springs made for eachother for only $299.00. Can't come close to beating that. There was a fitment issue for 2s regarding the struts though. I couldn't find where I found that thread, but I know the thought was also that the springs would not be quite right because of the discrepancy in load weight.
