>>>Lots of people have purchased a PMGR starter from DB Electrical on E-bay 
for $49, and they've been quite happy with them.   I have a very similar 
starter that I got from Pantera Performance Center that was something like 
$110-120 or so.   It is 'clocked' differently, so that the solenoid is mounted 
on top of the starter instead of underneath, so the wiring is easier and 
more convenient.

>>>It's almost impossible to find a good match for the factory carpet, 
which is NOT black, but rather a silver/charcoal color.   Some of the vendors 
sell pure black carpets, which are quite dark.   I opted to have a carpet made 
by my local upholstery shop; it's darker than stock, darker than I'd like, 
but as close as I could get to the original color.   None of the vendors had 
anything better to offer in terms of material, but I have custom floors so 
my carpets had to be custom-made anyway.
