Also, these are some pics...replacement part codes, names or even a place to purchase would help soooo much!

It just looks like things have come loose from their mountings. The door panel is the big issue. Replacements are about $300 new, and beyond that the options seem to be a junkyard search or a clever, kudgey homegrown fix. (At least that's what I think I know after dealing with my not-as-broken door for the last few months. Just replaced the regulator, and the body shop got the door panel back on much more tightly than previously, so I may live with it for a while instead of starting my own junkyard search.) | | | 12-12-2009, 06:28 AM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2008 Location: Raleigh/Charlotte, NC Posts: 1,233 | someone installed the radio wrong and pushed it in so hard it cracked the bezel and is now falling apart. __________________ -Jeff | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
