List price for part was $1.70. Postage would have been $.43, Total $2.13. Give me the part number for your seats, if the total is less than $2.13, you'll have them next week.....................

In all seriousness, this is an example of how you sometimes have to help your friendly parts guy. Most parts folks are overworked and underpaid. Parts like this one can be hard to find on the electronic parts catalog unless you know exactly where to look. Even then it can take a good 10 or 15 minutes. That's a lot to ask especially since the sale will net the parts counter less than a dollar. I always look up my own part numbers on the epc. (subscription to the online epc is free) When providing my own part numbers, I have never had an instance where a part was not available. Before I started looking up my own part numbers, parts that you would expect to cost less than $5.00 were not available 90% of the time.
