Well guys and gals, I can't believe it, my wife saved the drivers seat cover. I was going to order a new one and found out $547(shocked) and she heard me complain. She said take the cover off and let me see what I can do, I had just complained to her the other day of not helping me on it but she is running interference on two kids so thats a help I guess, and anyway I got it off and in two hours she unstitched the driver air bag broken seam and hand sewed it back up with some dark grey thread. Its a little darker on that seam but hey, you dont notice at all even off the car so hey, she pulled her weight on her own car . I will put the cover in tonight and post some pics and we are getting very close to done.....hey hey. BTW if anyone referrs back to this thread on a MS6 rebuild then if the drivers and pasenger front air bags blow the clips on the passenger bag on the electrical connections melts on explosion so Mazda tries to sell you a new harness. DONT BUY A NEW HARNESS... You have to replace the clockspring in the steering wheel anyway when drivers bag blows and the clip off the old clockspring will plug right into the new passenger bag, simply remove the wires from the clips on both, pull the old passenger bag, place wires into the old clockspring slip and be sure they are tight and plug and play (drive2) .......Then call MAZDA and that $1800 wireing harness you were suppose to buy, just tell them(hah) . Works well and the airbag light is not on (alright)
God Bless,
Michael
