Have you searched Haynes Roadster Mx5 plans on Google? There is a pdf at the top of the search which includes all the alterations to use the Mx5 as a donor. I just tried to copy it here but my phone wouldn't let me. I am not at that stage yet so can't guarantee their accuracy but it seems a useful manual in general. Good luck with the build.

heres the link to the saturn plans, whos chassis are you using? saturns mx5 plans use really short wishbones, im using a talon chassis and the rear wishbones are much longer if not the same as the book ones
