You wouldn't be willing to pull and ship would you? I kno it's asking a bit, I'm having to do the same for a guy in Canada who wants USDM parts for his toyota.

Really shows the longevity of cloth seat versus leather seat. The cloth seat still looks good. The leather looks horrible.

The fabric that they used was a better quality back then, we had an '08 Nissan Altima come in with 90k miles on it and the driver's seat was already worn out.

Let's hope he made a trip of it and visited all of the local tourist attractions while he was at it. That's one hell of a drive

Yep, drove down and got my parts. Yes I made it back, safely. Tomorrow I have to replace the clutch and then I can start swapping parts over.

That's dedication right there! I went to a local junkyard (didn't find anything) so I drove 30 miles away for another and that seemed like a "trip" when it's not far away at all lol.

Please don't take me the wrong way (not trying to insult) but... How hard did the employees at the junkyard laugh at you when they found out that you drove from Georgia? Because Dude, that is some serious driving!

Did you achieve this all in one day?

And I like how you squeezed a starter in the wheel barrel also lol. Mind as well grab everything you can while you're there.

Let's see, left town about 9PM EST Friday night and got there about 9AM after pit stops and naps. Left about 4PM Saturday afternoon and got home Sunday around 2PM after crashing at my friends place from 2AM to 12PM. They were impressed that I would drive that far and gave me a $50 discount on a Honda rotating assembly. Starter? You must be looking at my Kobalt impact gun next to my yard box.
