WTB black door panels with armrests for 95

I just bought a 95 with no armrests and I understand that 95 was the only
year they were missing. Should I try salvage yards or buy them new from
the dealer. Do I need to find the whole inner door panel or just the
armrests and attach them to my existing panel? I imagine there must be
some structure underneath to support the stress on the armrest. It doesn’t
seem like a part anyone here would be likely to be selling off.
Thanks for your help,
Bill

    Both ’94 and ’95 lack the armrests.  If you buy new parts through a Mazda
    dealer it comes as a replacement interior door panel, not just the
    armrest, costing about $300-400 depending on which one you need.

    Ouch!

    Try Tommy at Roebuck Mazda.  My guess is that if the above is true, he can
    probably get them to you for $150-200 (don’t ask me how, I don’t know).
