Ebay has the best prices. It is not that hard of a job to "vent" the earlier models. I did this on my 92. So far, so good.

Maybe you could "collect" your own parts and have a mechanic put them in seeing as you are not confident in you skills and don't have a garage with heat!?!?! Just a thought.

EDIT: Oops..to late you already wen to the dealer.
