How do you know this guy? I'm kind of wary of sending a total stranger money.
Thanks,

[Disclaimer: I don't know this guy and never had any business with him]
He's been around the forums for quite a while, I often see his ads in classifieds about parting out cars. He's also active on ebay, you can check out his feedback rating. IIRC his ebay name is the same.

I think he is legit. He told me he didn't have the parts I needed, non-legit would just say yeah and take my money. Hitman has bought from him, and he also has a good ebay rating.

Thanks for the info guys.
He sent me a very detailed response to my email. (I am looking for a 60/40 split rear seat for my '96 GL.) Unfortunately he only has a split rear for an LX which is a different pattern. Now I've gotta find out how different that it is. Anywho...
Thanks,
Ben

I went to a Junkyard for my Cup holders, Im glad to say they suck royal ass! Each time i get a beverage in cup form, it dont fit, i rarily do it though... but still... It fits Mountain Dew cans perfectly! And thats my most concern! I believe 97 Cup holder was redesigned to just 1 cup holder, then 95 and 96 are a dual popup holder... which barily fit anything... get a 97 I believe... otherwise, dont even bother if you drink big beverages   Soon as i see a bigger cup holder at junkyard.... it shall be mine!

Will the 97 cup holder work? That would be sweet. One of mine is already broken in my 96.  If they were made of metal they wouldn't suck as much. But they are still too friggin small. BP

Mine are snapped too. Those cupholders are a very bad design. Why are they like $80 from the dealer! What kind of price can you get them for at a junkyard?
