All, when purchasing an x brace a member from the board let me know about a guy who was on ebay that he purchased his at auction from. The group is JHL Associates LLC, and the owner is Jason Lile.
The guy is first class all the way. i purchased an x brace, and an illuminated shift knob and took a gamble that a set of //m roadster mats work work in the TI (they did and they look great!).
The parts arrived yesterday in great shape. the brace and a very small scrape from use, but other than that was WELL worth it!! the shifter knob was as close to perfect as you could hope being a used low mileage part, and the mats looked great.
If you are considering purchasing an x brace of shift knob, or anything else that we can use from an m coupe or roadster, check with Jason first.
