Great write up on the screen replacement. I got mine as well from where you did, now I just got to find where I put the yellow package,grrrr... You did a great job on getting everything back together.
I prefer Denso plugs and then NGK. I meant to mention that before. If you are going to change your plug wires, I get these >> http://www.ebay.com/itm/250854901322...84.m1438.l2649 better and cheaper then what the parts stores offer.

Even O'reilly has Denso plugs, iirc... and I think my dealer often puts them and oil filters on sale.... couple bux a piece last time I went in there. BUT, best/quickest customer service has been with.......
.... www.sparkplugs.com ........... When u go to denso.com, they bounced me to them, so I got the CRV and last Ruby Redrums 02 sensors there... quick delivery!

He's a member of YT? Wow,.....yeah, PM and email him like crazy.... Maybe include a lil , "I hope you havent been seriously injured or something.....But, that, while terrible, would at the very, very least make me feel less like I'm getting ripped off."
Wow, and for that price??? Yeah, I see ur inner quarrel with reporting/withdrawing from the payment.
Thats just sucky.....
Anyone seem to know him personally on here, through whom you could do a second party 'drop by'? Lol

Sorry to hear about the problems with getting panels. You seen that one runner I tried to get and how bad its panels were. It is rusted up bad and he decided not to sell it. I just now came across a tailgate that was involved in a roll over. I have the rear piece that has Toyota on it and I think the lights are good in it but havent really checked it out just yet that I might be able to send your way. I think it has some surface rust on it but think they will clean up nicely. I am only getting a one bar reception on my laptop so will wait til I get home and get some pictures up hopefully in the morning sometime.
I am a fan of chrome myself and the aftermarket grills have seemed to be made just as well as the factory ones. I have used several in the past and never had any complaints with them. They do have one style that I dont care for, but when I get the factory looking ones, they have always worked great.
