I was in the middle of doing the foam removal from the seat (which is a good job once done..) but the screw connecting the bottom and top part of the seat wasn't moving. In the end the head got a bit butchered, but I didn't want to drill it out incase I couldn't get a replacement.

I just took foam out of the base, but want to do the back too. Can these screws be got? It's a Phillips screw that seems to have a washer attached to it?

What are the chances? I was speaking to Jonny Westside yesteday about these as I need a pair. I've asked him to order me a couple, you might be able to jump in on that action if you ask him nicely?

Be aware they are some funky JIS jap spec thread, so if you put a "normal" bolt in, you'll ruin the thread.

Yea, that looks like it. How much do they cost?

Does anyone have any advice about how to go at the one that has the butchered head?

Its 10% discount over Mazdas Retail price smile

But, they're on back order.. I'd say 4-5 days delivery, maybe slightly longer..
