Well Corky, Mine came from a salvage yard that does repairs and such
also, its a one piece unit, dosent have the removable sides or any of that
plastic trash, wieghs a bit more than the stock one, but i trust a metal one
more than plastic
I'm sure there has to be other distributers but mine came from Route 51 Auto
Wreckers Perryopilis, Pa (724) 785-4300
they called thier distributor, and got me one overnight express, so they
should be alble to do something for you
the 2 core one was 175.00
the 3 core one was an even 200.00
