BTW, Tom did make me an offer I cant refuse on that stereo and amp. But, then a friend locally said he had a stereo in his garage that he dont want. So free is even better.
Thanks Tom.

I started today by working on the driver's door. Took all the parts out of the insides and put in a new Latch Mechanism, New Door Stop, and new Lock Switch. After the third time putting the guts back...

I'm not much into Amps nowadays with decent car stereos putting out 30 to 50 watts RMS per channel. That seems to be enough power for me. Plus a 100W Powered Sub in the back is all I need.

I have ordered door panel clips twice now and both times they were the wrong ones. :mad: A few of mine are missing and I'm going to be taking the door apart to replace the latch and switch as the...

I'd be interested too in what someone might find.

After finding all the parts I was looking for I went home and started swapping parts.
The armrest/storage for change and other small things had broken plastic so it wouldn't latch. I got a used one...

I went to the junkyard today looking for the exterior door sweeps, the Door seal that goes around inside the door jam, and possibly a replacement plastic Bezel that goes around the stereo, heater...

That is only being advertised to other Hams as you have to be a Ham to get to the info. People can find what city and area I might be in and my name but no personal info.

Thanks, Steve. It's my Ham Radio Call Sign. The FCC and Government made a deal so that we can use our call signs on our plates. The best part about it is a personalized plate can cost 50 bucks or...

Thanks, Tom.
All the stuff on ebay is coming up as not the right stuff for my car. Not sure why as it looks right. And they dont list the measurement very well.

The only parts Im looking for are those exterior window seals. Im thinking I should be able to find a roll of it and cut to length and detail myself. But everything I find dont fit my car.

Snerdler for a mouse maybe. :roflmao

Hey, Tom. Do you know where to find those window seals being the repair...

One part I just can't seem to find is the seal that rubs against the outer door glass. It's very odd-shaped. A small part of it is attached to the exterior of the door, then it goes down inside the...
