SCIROCCO.ORG SPEAK UP!!

[jtoomasson at yahoo.com (Jeff Toomasson)]

As much as I need this part, it would not be worth it to me at $25. $15 is
palatable and I would buy two sets.

I would also recommend you hit up the Vortex if you haven't already. There
is a sizeable faction of mk1 owners there not on the list (most of which
were listers at some point or other).

Thanks for your diligence in setting this up - Jeff
