Hi there Not sure if this is in the right place but Buyers be aware when buying off of Scotty50 on Trade me you have to be real clear as to what you are paying for I made the mistake of believing an instrument cluster comes complete as removed from the vehicle but I was wrong. Its Only $40 so not worth the hassle I realy should stop buying Safari parts from Dunedin.

That sounds pretty pathetic to not mention that. I would def hit him up about that
I brought a pair of 80 series radius arms off him , when I picked them up we yawned for a good half hour or more. Seemed a nice enough guy
Hit him up , approach it right and you might end up with a win.

I made the mistake of buying a set of running boards off him a few years ago. Paid $125, and got the alloy step piece only. When I queried, he told me he provided me with the boards as requested
