    Ron,
    I know the feeling well...I sideswiped a tree last 12-30-04, crunched r/r quarterpanel & got a DUI to boot. A VERY sick feeling indeed.
    At that time the bodyshop had no problem getting parts from the nearest dealership.
    Don't worry, at least no one was hurt & it could have been a LOT worser!

    BTW, now that the TIQ (tree in question) has 2 cars to it's credit... might be the right time to buy a chainsaw???

    Best always, Ldub

    Or some reflectors nailed to the tree?

    Sorry about the loss, man.

    Question

    I thought all auto manufacturers are required by some sort of law to produce/warehouse enough parts for their vehicles up to some amount of time in years, just to even satisfy their warranties?

    Fears are justified, it seems

    St. Charles reports no doors in the U.S., and All Hyundai/Isuzu Auto Recyclers have none. Door cladding and bumper cladding we got, but no doors.

    Has anybody had any luck ordering parts that weren't in stock? Do they EVER come in, or are we totally adrift?

    Anybody with a lead on a rear door, I need your help.

    This @#$%$in' sucks
