Headlight motors are rebuildable..... And really don't take alot of money to have working again..... I bought the right side assembly from a wrecking yard..... I had a 50/50 chance of it working..... I went ahead and rebuilt it reguardless if it worked or not. It cost me like $10bucks to fix and it has had no problems ever.... My point to this post is buying any used rebuildable electrical unit has a chance not to work. That is just plain cheap asking a seller to buy a $10part.... That would be like me buying something like a slave cylinder from a wrecker yard then comming back and fussing at them to buy me a rebuild kit LOL.
I would do buisness anyday with mastertuner. This is one of the reason's he doesn't do buisness with alot of ppl.... Because of ppl like you couch2199
It wasn't a wrecking yard part chief, and I didn't pay next to nothing for it either. How about you keep your stupid comments to yourself.

when u see a list of good "people to deal with" & you're not included, it sort of makes u want to deal somewhere else !!!! MEL there's too many other places to deal with so u guys can keep your little click to your selves !!!!

Can't speak for everyone Mel, but I only listed those I personally had dealings with and explained I couldn't remember them all. If I bought something from you and didn't remember, I'm sorry I left your name off.

If I bought a slave cylinder from a yard I would totally expect it to work. If it didn't, I would expect them to replace it with one that did work. I am surprised that anyone would think buying working used parts would think it is acceptable for them to be broken. I could make a whole lot more money selling working parts if I didn't concern myself with making sure that they did work.
If you are buying cores, you get what you get. If you buy working parts it is expected that they work.

I have had problems with only one person on this Forum, and that is GTdude! It has been almost 2 months and I still haven't got my parts in. He says that the parts are gonna ship but still nothing! GTdude if you are reading this please send my cash ($93+). I have had to put off buying other parts because of you and my car is still not finished. I wanted to have it ready for a Fiero event in October and thought I could do it before the end of summer. Thanks to you, I still have a unfinished car sitting in my driveway and I have lost the chance to make it to this event next month. Please just send my money back. I hope with all the money you sat on that you got your car(s) all together and looking good!

It was a used electrical unit... That needed a little $10 dollar part That's actually a good idea to replace anyway, And now it works.... So what is all the fuss? Im still going to call cheap on your part. And does not qualify someone as a bad seller.
So forking out $130+shipping for an '88 headlight setup with a defective left side motor is cheap eh? Wow I must be pretty poor then. When I spend that kind of money I expect everything to be in working order. Now if the motor had went out a month or 2 down the road I wouldn't have cared...but for it not to work right off the bat is quite disheartening...especially when this was sold as a working USED unit not a WRECKING YARD piece. If I had been the seller I would have been more than happy to send the buyer a Rodney repair kit to fix the unit. Especially if I hadn't even taken the time to check for proper operation 1st. So EARL whats your assumption now? You know what happens when you assume correct??????

Mel,I just read this thread and if I felt like you I would leave this place so fast it would make every one of those who didn't mention your name have their heads spin.I have bought a fair amount of things from forum members and if they don't remember me,that's ok.I know if I need something from someone on here I won't have a problem getting it,and they don't need to post my name as a good buyer.

I have had good transactions from everybody. I have only sold 1 thing, that was to Jerimiah (I think), he needed some grommets for his 2.5L, and his dealership said they were discontinued, so I got him the parts shipped them to him, with the invoice. He paid by pay-pal, and I got the email saying I have a payment, but I didnt get credited to my credit card, but it wasnt much so I didnt care.

Hey!!! You missed the "_" JK
BTW I think that last comments is one of the most mature that I've seen on here in a while. Nice to know there are still admirable people out there. Hopefully I'll have one of my cars up and running soon. I've got the fresh engine. Just tell my wife to stop driving her Jimmy into the ground!

Everybody has been really good with me on buying stuff from the mall Except for two guys who go by: GTdude ( took months to refund my money but he did.) Jagray ( screwed me on a dash and kept my money, haven't heard from him ) Other than these two duds it has been a pleasure buying from you guys.
so far my 95% of my business experiences have been very good, only problems i have had was from 1 or 2 renigers. get it all pulled, packaged, ready to ship and then they change their mind...argh.

Reading wetpoop's and jsmorter1's thread made me think it was time to bump this back up and update it or edit if you've already posted on it. It's a good source of info and I don't want it archived. I edited mine!
