Yes, temple city autoparts off las tunas and the allied auto parts in pasadena- off colorado next door to Rite-Aid and across the street from pep-boys. they have a warehouse so if they dont have it, they can get it within a few hours. call them first tho.

ur better off going to a mom and pops auto parts,they usually carry more stuff in stock than the major stores like kragen,autozone,or pep boys...

i once had this problem with a ignition for a 79 sa...i called all over,even mazdatrix...so long story short...i found it for a way cheaper price than mazdatrix that didnt even have it in stock,and they had it for me in a couple of hours,so there u go...mom & pops auto parts...A++++.

im getting one from DK, a family member was just suggesting i should man up and just get a new one incase since im putting one on anyways.. (im putting s4 water pump jacket on my s5 TII because thats the part i sourced, and figured i could benefit with the s4's rad cap setup + s5 rad). Was just hoping I could try grabbing a new one in the time it would take to get his.

Aren't you running an s5 j-spec engine in your s4 with s5 body parts?

Hahaha. You may not be the best person to advocate the s4 80's theme. You're more an advocate of how to build an awesome car properly. Nobody will give a second look to a stock s4, but everyone would check out your j-spec s5 conversion. (Get that motor finished!)
