Phil at Talon will be able to help with premade parts for Haynes inc MX5 parts.
The Haynes forum will be of help too.

First job will be to go to the Haynes forum and get the book amendments, there are a few measurements that are plainly wrong. Second will be to listen
to everything Phil says, the guy has saved me a fair bit of frustration!!
Essentially I have followed the Haynes chassis from the front of the car to behind the seats. The transmission tunnel is slightly wider on one side to
take into account the MX5 diff, and the rear suspension and diff mounting will be totally different depending on what you plan to do. Personally
I'm using one of Phils diff covers to preserve the standard wishbones as much as possible, with only a slight length change to match the
uprights.
