Esp since kraznov was coronated.

People are going to be furious when they can't get parts.

Have you tried jpcarparts.com? Hou have to pay shipping from Japan, but they are delightful to do biz with & ften have new old stock! They search the entire country for hard to fnd parts & came throubh for us more than once.

Good luck in your search!
