I heard that Ford's prices on the DMD are lower now. Any idea how much? I'd like to get one pretty soon.

Last time I knew they were under $50. I went to the Mazda dealership and priced one from a Mazda 6 for $41 plus I'd imagine another $5 or so for the bolt and washer. Also add the $7 for beer.

So the Mazda 6's DMD will work? I'll call Ford and ask for a price today. DMD for a '99 Contour, right?
... and who's up for helping with the install? How long will it take? I looks at the instructions and it sounds like I'm short a few tools.

Make sure to get the part number and use that... saying DMD to them will surely get you blank stares or dead silence on the phone.
Here it is: 1S7Z-6312-CA

I went and looked under the hood of a Mazda 6s and checked to see if it was a DMD, which it is. I also remember a post on the board a while ago saying that the Mazda 6s' DMD even had a Ford stamp on it with the identical part number as the regular crank dampner. So I went to the parts counter and asked them how much one would be and he quoted me 41 or 42 I believe. They looked at me really funny wondering why I would need a crank dampner for the 6 already.
