Happy Holidays list,
My Christmas present to myself is a new heater blower motor. I'm looking to 
find a good source for this, i have looked through the recommended supplies 
at Audifans, but that page is down :-(
Can someone point me in the right direction? I know somone had found a good 
source for these, but i looked in the archives and cant find who or where it 
was.
Thanks in advance,
Thomas
