88 80 Q Evaporator $?

[David.Ullrich at ferguson.com]

Yes, I goofed and quoted the wrong parts. Anyway, the correct part can still be had for less. The Parts Connection has Evaporators for $265 for the 80Q.

David,

I think you're confusing the condensor with the evaporator.  The condensor
is at the radiator.  The evaporator is in the dashboard.
