Wrong section to be posting this, might have better luck in the proper section. Anyhow, a while back I had the same problem and ordered a new unit from Autozone. Had it installed at a local garage. Get a call from them when they were done saying that it was the wrong unit and the car was barely drivable. Took it for a drive and they weren't lying. The garage got my stocker rebuilt for about 1/3 of the price, Autozone refunded my money for the wrong one, and I got to pay for the labor twice lol

The rebuilt stocker was around 120, was well over 300 for the special order unit. The guy at Autozone even came out to my car to get the VIN # because there were 3 different part numbers listed and they still couldn't figure out the right one
