First-i ask for a tv cable for a 88-93 aod. Second-i ask for a harness thats goes from the tranny to the plug in through the drivetrain tunnel. I was told they go with the transmissions. Ok fine. Next i ask for 1-2 sets of 4 lug drums and rotors. They told me, Sorry we DONT sell them- TOO MUCH RISK. Next i ask How much for the ten holes with tires. I am told 75.00 ok now i am getting some where. Then he says 75.00 PER rim and tire. He says because the TEN HOLE rims are very rare!!!! Next i ask how much for the ponies with the bald tires he says he dosent know he needs to talk to the boss. Come back monday.
Next i ask about a AOD he says he has one 40k very good shape he is happy to show it to me. guess what NO TV CABLE OR HARNESS. if i want them that is on top of the price he quoted me.
There area few more things but at this point i will stop the RANT it was like they didnt want to sell me anything.

Thats fucking bull shit, $75 for each 10 hole? WTF rare my ass ive gave away pairs of ten holes. R u just looking for some POS wheels for your car to go into paint or sell as a roller or something?

Yeah, I hate when people try and fuck you on parts. Those guys wanted to charge me out the ass for some curbed up bullit wheels a while back.

I think he wanted like $750 for that set of curbed bullits with junk tires. I asked how much for the wheels without the tires and he said they were a package deal.... some deal, now I have to pay to have someone dispose of em. I'll stick to other sources for my parts.

I paid $500 for my 03 Cobra decklid & spoiler, this price seemed fair since dealer new price was way over that. Also got 03 Cobra mirrors for $250 for a set... I thought these were ok prices, but those prices you guys described are way too much...
