    ebay

    note that you could use a kia bp also
    people who sell them dont always know they're worth more money

    i got mine for $100.00 with 65,000 miles

        96/97 will work. I don't know about other years (95? 98?). What year is your car?

                        Charles posting that pic of the cute doggy in that thread in Offtopic was t3h funny, but it was just a bit short of ROFL COPTER status.

                          anyway i searched the forum for a second time and found the answer to my ecu question but still dont know if the transmission will.... does someone possibly want to post a link to a particular thread that already has that disccussed?
