I need to replace the steering rack on my 2019 G4, but only see used ones from the regular hatchback Mirage.
Anyone know how to tell if these parts are interchangeable?

Yes. Part number 4410A498. Fits all Mirages and G4s.
Can I ask why it needs to be replaced?
Welcome to the forum. Your 2019 should be covered by the factory warranty unless you're repairing it due to a crash.Quote:

Found a used rack/pinion assembly for $95 with 1k miles on it (instead of $1,100), used headlight for $150 (instead of $419), and a used control arm for $65 (not sure how much those are). Just gotta stop by where my car is at and figure out what size tires I got on it so I can replace the tire, that thing wore out a ton from things being bent.
Gonna pay off loans & focus on some other things before replacing the front bumper, grille, and hood. I think it's about $300 at best for a hood, $100 for a grille, and not sure what the bumper is.
Any idea if I can install the digital/automatic AC from the hatchback model, into my mirage with the manual AC? I mean mines got that manual lever for the vents to go indoors or outdoors, so I imagine I gotta rig up an actuator for that, but in theory the rest oughtta work?
Anyone know where to buy the repair manual? Like something with torque specs?
Lol, there is somebody here trying to do the opposite...they want knobs instead of auto climate control.Quote:

Check this thread. It's probably not a trivial change.Quote:
