Hey Matt, I pm'ed you but don't know if you check- I found you a badge, just let me know where to send.

That sounds like a big job, maybe not?
Guess I should do a archive search... sure don't want to mess with an airbag though...

Darn, all that you ask for is trashed pretty bad.

Ooo, can you grab me the MAP sensor (by the windshield washer tank)?! Pretty please? I refuse to buy a new one, but it throws codes every time I go down near sea level. If you can get it, send me a PM and I'll send you a check for shipping

I see a pic online of that, but this car doesn't have it there. Is there another place it would be?

Hmmm...I wonder if it's only in that location on 97's and later?

Look up under the fan shroud for the radiator for it, near the fan relay. I'm not sure if the older ones look different or not.

Grab the transmission drain plug bolt and crush washer. Always good to have a spare. 24mm hex socket. Use a 1/2" ratchet with short extension.
