Mike,

I have an ashtray generously donated to me by deermagnet. I'll send it to you for free if you make an extra site donation. PM me if interested.

Hey Mike,

Have you downloaded the Parts List? Check the bottom left diagram on page 15 to see if that shows the part you need. If it's still available, multiply the price listed x 1.377 to get an approximate final cost. (Don't forget the retainer, screws & grommets if needed.) Talk to Merlin at St. Charles Isuzu (800) 727-8066 and mention this website to get free shipping.

I brought the ashtray to work with me. I'll find a box for it & get it shipped out to you today or tomorrow (probably tomorrow - in meetings all day).

BTW, grey looks good on you (membership status)!!!

Chances are, you won't get a return call... first time I wanted to order a couple small parts it took me 3 days to finally get through.

I've never left a message. I always call back after a few minutes - so far I've never had to go over 3 calls.

Or you could just go to IsuzuParts.com. They usually ship stuff the same day.

Probably because it's a body/trim part, although it's weird because some things are still available (license plate delete for example) while others are gone. Unless Merlin really is magic I'm not sure where he'd get one if none of the Isuzu warehouses have it.

Have you tried emailing this guy?

It's funny that this tread-detour would come up. I wonder if there are some dopey "corporate-type things" going on in the background. I ordered the License Plate Delete from Merlin yesterday and learned there were 57 shown as being "on hand" but they are listed as being out of production. He said that status usually means he is no longer able to get the part, but since they were listed as being on hand he was confident he could get it. Say whut? I guess I'll know for sure in a few days depending on whether or not I get a present in the mail.
