Yes, one is offered by Mazda. I have one on my car. Just contact your local Mazda dealer and ask about it. Or ask these guys if you want what should be a better price: http://www.mazdaparts.org/

I have been debating getting one myself - do they look okay on the 5?

I also have a moon-roof deflector on back-order. Ordered it in APRIL!!! its been nearly 6 months!! Probably going to cancel the order. They really shouldnt offer a product that they cant seem to get. Its stupid.

I certainly like it, looks good on my black 5 anyway. I''ll post a pic later when I get home from work.

As for the sunroof visor, I was once into them but am not a fan anymore, the rubber seal will marr your paint finish over time. You''ll get this ripple where the rubber contacts the surface of the roof and it can''t be buffed out, it distorts the paint itself. So just never take it off if you get one.

Try this place to see if they have any visors: http://www.mazdaparts.org/

Well maybe not, a 138 KB jpg file is apparently too large, even though it says 500 KB max... strange.

Found this pic:

On a 2006/2007 though, same general style though.
