Miata Mailing List: July 1998, Message #174

I thought I would thank all the listers who answered my questions in
regards to buying a used Miata.  I am now the proud owner of a 92
Sunburst Yellow miata with, I think, package A.  It has roll up windows
and no cruise, but ps, alloys and A/C.  Also has a brand new top which
looks fantastic.

And, as a new owner, I have a few questions that I have not been able to
find the answers to on miata.net.
 
Sorry, but this is going to be long:

Tires- Needs 4 new tires.  195/60R14 on there now.  manual says
185/60R14.  I assume I'll buy the 195's  again.  Any speedo change with
the taller tires?

Top- If the lock button on the top release is supposed to do anything,
then mine is broken.

Keys- Only got the Valet key.  Mazda place made me an original from the
VIN number but it doesn't work.  HELP!

Pinstripes- In good shape, but are coming off immediately.  Any
suggestions on uninstillation?

That's all I can think of right now, but I'm sure I'll have more
questions later.

Thanks again, I hope this list will be a good source for accurate info
on the miata.
