If i saw correctly ,it appears that you broke the swaybar end link . As far as I know you can only get them from the dealer .
I may be able to help you ,if you can measure the link from the mounting bolt to mounting bolt and send me that measurement ,i will check the two I have . If they are the same I could send them to you .
the reason i have these links is I was going to use them to install a MP3 rear swaybar in my 2001 LX2.0 and didn't need them after all .

what do u mean by the measurement

Those are the sway bar end links. Measure the maximum length from bolt end to bolt end.

Damn that would explain why I had such a hard time getting the right ones from Mazda when I changed struts. I measured the rod length from ball to ball and got 7-1/2”, when Mazda said they were 9” rods right on the packing. I thought they were all screwed up, and I guess I still do. Why measure them on a diagonal from bolt end to bolt end?
