[urq] Finding misc. parts for the urq

I'm working on some of the little issues on the car and thought I'd see if
there are any suggestions for part sources . and up front I must admit that
I have not checked with the dealer . 

 

The thing that got me thinking about this topic is the compliant plastic
pieces in the front seat rails.  I'm pretty sure that I have none of the
original parts.  I know the driver's seat rocks quite a bit, and I'd like to
repair this annoyance.  I have a recollection that the bits used in the urq
are different than those in a 4k . 

 

For some reason I'm finding that from time to time I'm leaving the
headlights on when I leave the car in the morning.  I have figured out the
wiring changes to wire in the newer models' chime (which chimes if the
lights are left on).  The thing I have yet to figure out is where to find a
relay plate with the extra terminals for the new part that plugs into the
old car's relay racks.  The cars with the newer chime module use a different
style of rack . at least I haven't found a relay plate that will clip into
the rail style mount.  Anyone have any suggestions here?

 

I am still kicking myself on the next one.  While I was messing with the
pneumatic (bi-pressure) pump for the lock I broke a tab off the rear window
washer reservoir.  I've checked several Coupe GTs in the pick-n-pull, but
either they didn't have the rear wiper or the reservoir was missing.  My
reservoir is in good shape other than the broken tab, perhaps I'll see if I
can effect some sort of repair .
