It is unlikely that you'll find a site which publishes the manual as that would be a copyright violation. On the off chance you do find a site it is also likely it will be shut-down in relatively short order for the same reason.

Long story short, buy the manual from Mazda if you need it; respect the rights of the owners of the copyright.

I never mentioned anything about illegally obtaining the manual.

Notice in my original post "ebay" and "google" -- I use google shopping for many searches.

Anyway, if you can point me to a mazda dealer that sells them online, I'd buy it.. I suppose I can just go to my local dealer and hope they give me a reasonable price.

Glad to hear it; too many folks these days don't respect the intellectual property of those which put in effort, time and money into creating a work.

Have you tried the following site?

just tried it, they dont appear to have the factory (OEM) manual for the 2007 (first gen) .. they have some other interesting tidbits.. i'm still hoping for an OEM manual.

Although the $1.99+$4.99 shipping parts blowout program might be worth it, as well

I've never had a problem ordering an OEM manual through my local dealer; did you try there?
