I'm going to need to go around the car specifically looking for missing bits,, most are not really obvious until I look at both sides.


The two I know for sure are the passenger side rear corner above the bumper and a small chrome strip (maybe 1/4" wide, 6-7" long) on the drivers side C post even with the bottom of the back door windows.


Probably easiest if I get some photos.

I think I know what you're talking about, but go ahead and post photos. I'll be going back to the yard on Monday and looking at the cars again. for my personal desires, so if I can come home with stuff for other people, awesome.

These are the bits


Small chrome piece under rear corner window (you can see the black gap in the chrome running under the windows). This is my actual car, if there is any question on the style of trim.

The L shaped piece between the taillight and bumper. This is just a photo I found online, but I think this is the same style of trim.

and on the off chance you can find one of these hoses in decent condition. Mine has a 1-2" long split in the middle of the upper bend, so it doesn't have to be perfect to be better.

I'm in Northern California, but they are fairly small light bits so I wouldn't expect shipping to be bad.


Thanks

I will take a look tomorrow. Shoot me a PM with what you're looking to pay, and I'll see if they've got it.

EDIT: I'm gonna take a look and see if I can't get that tube at work as a new part (I work at an auto parts store). It looks like a bypass hose would be able to replace it. If that's the case, they'd hold up to heat great and last forever.
