GTX 96-97 Front Storage Bin Question

[prd]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone knows the part number of the front storage bin for a GTX 97? Mine is broken and I would like to replace it, but I need to part number.

Thanks

Part number 269000269.

I have an extra if you need one. It is fairly big, not sure what shipping would be. PM sent

Thanks Kicker. I've replied to your PM.

the are a major pain to ship because of the bulk. I had a spare and threw it away after trying for 3 months to sell it on CL.

I must agree with you about that.

One of the reason why I'm trying to locate someone locally, in the montreal area.

Nice if Kicker has one your set!

Yes, but shipping is killing the deal.

40ish-50ish shipping rate depending on company.

that sounds about right.... but that's not too bad...

Here's your plan B.

Ahah, that could also work. lol

Shipping is a necessary evil, it would cost $100 or more for me to send one to canada. That bin is huge!

When I get back to the office I will check to see what I can do, we bulk buy shipping through a coop.
Just left the dealer, needed 1 carb diaphram, ...........wait for it,,,,,,,,,,$48 plus 13% tax.

OMG dude why didnt you just buy one from me kicker?? holy hell I could have sold you the whole kit at that price!

Well, I'm paying almost more for shipping than the actual bin.

I'm in no rush.

:rant: All I want to do is get 1 stinken project done, I stock a ton of parts for a rec guy (its not a business for me) and I always seem to need something. I hate going to the stealership so I order my parts online and get the best deal possible 90% of the time. The odd time I go to the stealership cause it is a dealer only item.

So while I was there I remembered I needed a diaphragm, found out the price and just about fell over. The guy said, "sorry I don't make the prices" what a load of crap, their bending me over and know it. All these guys have mikuni has a supplier so what they do is get the parts from mikuni directly and charge cataloged bombardier pricing. I wanted to get these carbs done this weekend so I paid the price. Online stuff is great and reasonably priced but I get tired of waiting for stuff all the time. I have 4 skis pulled apart and cant finish any of them cause I need to wait for parts.

I am not complaining about the delivery times cause I find most companys efficient, just that fact that if I need something today I get hosed in my own country.

Same with this bin, what a rip. If I could fill up a truck with 24x24 boxes for $50 + 13% tax and drive them 5 hrs down the highway I would only have to work 1 day a week.

Keep in mind...flat rate express bubble mailer is $20 for something you need fast.

Bumping this up... anyone from Quebec area has one for sale?

Don't have one for you but I don't see how shipping would be that much. I used to part out ATVs all the time and once shipped a set of tires and wheels to Canada for fairly cheap. What are you wanting to spend on one? I'll keep my eyes peeled for one.
