Exclamation Silly question

Ok so i have my V8 TB and a new gasket. I tried to get the throttle cable from autozone and all the guy he could find was a universal one. Other than being bout as disgusting looking as it could be i dont like that idea. Anyone know of a parts store that might have it? My junkyard doesnt have one and i want to install it ASAP!

I have looked on ebay and not a thing. craigslist is just dangerous (thats how i got my bimmer) but ill fight the temptation and check.

Ill check napa and advanced autoparts this week. I wasnt sure if it was a dealer only kinda part or if anyone else had a better idea. Or maybe had one to sell....

Napa has been pretty good to me and seem to always have everything and if they don't they find it.

Ya i think that autozone loses now. I was just amazed that he offered to call the dealership, and that I could have it shipped to his store so i didnt have to go to dealership.

Ill try to remember to bring my camera so i can snap some pics.

yea, stores like napa and autozone dont have them, only universal ones. your only hope is a junkyard, stealership, or dodgeparts.com
