You might consider giving the folks at Z Barn a call (1-800-247-2793 9-5 EST). They have a web site - www.zbarn.com.

PETERPIT:

Glad you found your part.

I lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for 25 years, and while there I almost exclusively used MSA. I found the Z Barn while looking for something closer to where I am now (Clemson, SC) - shipping from MSA in CA ain't cheap. Now I usually check with Z Barn first - with a big boneyard they're great for used parts.

For info, I understand Courtesy Nissan (Richardson, TX) offers a discount to IZCC members. They have a website - www.courtesyparts.com - I haven't used them, so I can't comment.

For used parts, Eric Neyerlin in Pt. Richmond, CA also has a website - www.zparts.com - I haven't bought from Eric either, so I can't comment further. Eric also has some informative repair articles on his site.
