The latest list of parts on "national backorder"...

BillK · 02-27-2001, 03:51 PM

My dealer attempted to order parts to fix a handful of items, and the following are all supposedly on "national backorder."

Geez, does AoA keep anything in stock in the US?!?!

* Driver's side rear trim panel, Denim Blue (inside trim panel over CD changer area)

* Passenger Headrest, Denim Blue

* Privacy Shield, Denim Blue

* Turbo after-run pump

* Radio adapter for defroster/CD changer alternator whine TSB

* Windshield Washer reservoir cap

* Concert Radio head end

Feel free to add to the list... (and yes, that is every part they ordered...) :-(

Since I sold and am rebuying the car, I will have to dig for some of the original paperwork to find the VIN, but all of the items should be VIN-independent once you look up what the color code for Denim Blue is (it's DB inside and out...)

I understand about it being hard to find. I'll send Craig this link and see what he can find out. I'll post what he says.

I understand about it being hard to find. I'll send Craig this link and see what he can find out.
