You hooked me up with a nice OEM stereo when a jerk ripped me off. Let me find them (in a box somewhere) and I'll send them to you gratis. PM me your mailing address.

Hope it still is working (hard to know with 15yr old stuff). if you have them i'd gladly pay a reasonable $ for them and hope that i can get my set to someone else who needs them. i'll PM you my address, pass it forward.......that's what i feel these forums are for. i am always dissappointed when i see people on this forum (and others) where people are looking to make top dollar (or worse overpriced) for stuff. if you want top dollar go to ebay. if you want quick/local buyer beware go to craigslist. this should be a community where we can share resources - knowledge, parts, etc.... sorry for the tone of post - i just finished reading a post on here people complaining/badmouthing other members.... | | | 02-16-2013, 10:22 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: norcal - 94590 Posts: 3,186 | Sent!
