    i would like to obtain the following parts:
    1 ea: rod antenna (the threaded insert is present)
    1 ea: GPS module (used original , NOS or aftermarket) , the lid corner antenna is present
    1 ea: cd/dvd drive (used , NOS or aftermaket is acceptable)

    also , possibly the two ribbon cables that connect between CN6 and CN401 , as well as CN5 and CN400 .
    another chap here believes he may have these two items and i will give him the "first option" on these two items in the interest of "fair play" .

    i can pay via paypal , check or money order .

    thank you for your interest in this matter .

    cool ... throw a dvd dive in ... bill accordingly .

    i just pinged you over in my "woes" thread ... disregard it .
    i have not checked my email this morning ... things were already jumpin' at 0dark30 .

    that is three items off of the overall list .

    the other day i showed the box to a friend of mine ... yesterday evening he called me and said he was (strongly) thinking about owning one of them .
    sooo ... it would seem that i will soon be looking for the chunks to put one together for him .
    ehhh , what are friends for if they can't abuse or take advantage of you once in a while ?
    :laugh:

    Guy on eBay has dvd drives for sale. I think he is the same guy that was selling caddies with hard drives in them earlier this week. techrecommerce.
    Says he has more than 10 available, i got 2.He looks legit to me, even though he has low feedback. Just an fyi.
