Normally the lugs or tags break off, put a pair of second-hand springs and nut, out of a 2001 back in there.

Am I cheap or what.

Frugal, Syntor...most of us Connie-whackers are just like you: frugal.....that's what we call it 'round these parts anyway!

;)yep, you are cheap......I prefer new stuff, to stuff I have little history on....
How much are the parts anyway?

and I have to say you were lucky on that one, and didn't have "floating pieces/parts" to try to find...
