Fark it must be over 2 years now.I had previously tried to add the seller to my favorites and must have forgotten to click on save.I have since been trying to find this guy so I can get a gear lever boot and the center console cover.Now that I got no money, I cant buy anything. just spent my tax return on a new pc monitor. lol.At least now I have saved the page.Only thing left on my list is to get a replacement gear knob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
