Default Heh. Not yet.

I think I'm at around $600.

I'm not a good parts sales guy. I hate paypal with a passion and I think taking pictures is a pain in the ***. My M.O. has been to ship parts out and let people pay by check. I haven't been stiffed yet, but this somehow confuses people and they are afraid of it.

I need to sell either the head or the trans to get back into the black...or buy another car with a bad trans. Hmmmmmm.

Default Is the car gone yet?

I too hate paypal - but I find people on B5 A4 are really trusting and reliable. I've shipped stuff out before getting payment and other have done the same. It's the way it should be .

Default Gone two weeks ago. Taking up too up space in the garage.

Actually the best thing that the car did for me was forcing me to get a handle on the mess in the garage. I also got rid of a rear diff, a bad C4 trans, a bad 30v block, a bad chevy 350, and a pile of metal crap. The improvement is very nice.

Default sooo close to useful and hero status

if you had done a wiring diagram from what you found for the white connector etc, so that a new heated seat harness could be created that would have been killer!

I started the same project years ago, but couldnt decode enough info to figure out how to make a new harness for it.

Enjoy and well done!
