Just awesome when you think how old these things are.

my buddy has a Chrysler Sebring and he needed a plastic door handle. it was 212 dollars. plus tax
It killed him when I showed him I could replace my master cylinder and booster for the price of that piece of plastic.

 "..Chrysler Sebring and he needed a plastic door handle. it was 212 dollars. plus tax"


For $5 he could have went to a Pull-A-Part and bought one.  Those things are as common as dirt... especially since Sebring's aren't the most reliable cars on the road.. lots more dead in junkyards than left on the road. I see them all the time at Pull-A-Part lined up in every color.

I can vouch for the availability of parts as well.  Having recently moved from BC to Ontario, all our vehicles had to be inspected.  When the motorhome went in, it needed the usual rear wheel cylinders, and of course the oil seals for the rear hubs and new king pin bushings.  They called my wife and told her that the parts were unavailable and that it could not be certified.  After going on the US NAPA website, and calling the nearest store in the US; we had the parts in less than a week.  Unbelievable that the Canadian NAPA stores had all those parts listed as being made of unobtainium!  Rick

Unobtainium .RE: material that came from outer space a long time ago and is no longer available :  Fantastic new word for our group It is a very polular description of what we need most times . Sees a lot more use in Europe and Canada than here in the USA .     NAPA is a good sorce for this material They still even have the books (a paper and print) version of the computor ) With picture of the stuff (Unobtainium) And all there best line parts are as good or better than OEM new !
