This was all very helpful and I really appreciate it. This is not the first time this group has saved me a ton of $$$$. Last time was buying online and then programming a new key at minimal cost. Great stuff.

The trip to Maryland from RI sans fan was interesting especially when driving through a series of line storms with the top up. Ordering the part now.

Thanks again.
Mechanics today are not like the mechanics of old, the mechanics today are prone to throw out a part and replace it even though there was nothing wrong with it. The customer ends up paying for the part and does not know he is being stolen from. Stolen is a harsh word to use but there is not any other word for it. Lump a few parts like this together and we are on the way to grand larceny. The mechanics are allowed to hide behind the mechanics lien and they do. The mechanic will say it was an electrical part and is not returnable to the shelf, but he made the mistake so why should the customer pay for his mistake?

In this case the mechanic stepped back from the edge, $485 for a part that can be had for half that at least, trust your mechanic if you will but take off the rose tinted glasses.
