Well the shock sensor was only supposed to be given out for free for those waiting for the door lock fix, as a temporary fix. I doubt they will still offer that to you for free. If they do, bonus for you. Talk to Joe because that isn't right. I know for a fact that it works on the hatch, and why wouldn't it? The wiring is exactly the same as a sedan (alarm wise). I would have asked Joe from the beginning anyway.
I have a hatch and I got the shock sensor installed free at MOT.
I have to go to MOT again and check with Joe about it. Thanks everybody for all these answers.
Just did it on Sunday. Thanks for the easy to follow instructions.

Question.. sorry if I missed it.. how much does the shock sensor cost from Mazda??
Think I might do this as a poor man's alarm system!
I wrote a how-to for this long ago too... I think around the same time cwp did... alternate source of information
