    Need help locating a part number ...

    I assume you are looking for a window switch bezel for the left front door. The part number I came up with is 1L2Z 14525-BBA, this oem number calls out for vehicles with a Medium Dark Parchment colored interior. This is the closest color listed to tan in the oem parts catalog.

    Gear Shift Broke Off in Hands!!!

    I just installed this part yesterday. It works well, it looks a little beefier around the ears where the shifter lever attaches. It also has a c-clip design to attach the ball studded lever on the end.
