Richard--
While I agree that a good counterman would probably know the p/n off the
top of his head those guys are few and far between and showing up without a
part number, car serial number, application ID and birth certificate is an
invitation to a long wait. In any case I have a couple of responses from
listers with the p/n so I hope I am covered.
