Good trade. I'd say they are worth about the same.

80s Camaros can really fly with just a few cheap modifications, but stock...oh my word what amazing turds they were.

They are quite difficult to find spare. So many get broken, and so few replacements exist.

I had hope that some one here had a spare broken duo or 2 that they would sell the part from

The trouble is... there arent many duos out there that cant be fixed anymore :D I only had one unit that was unrepairable, and unfortunately, I've already donated the door to another Duo.. If you want the old door you can have it. one of its two hinge pieces is broken off. I can get you a pic if you want it.

Post by: BlueBMW on March 24, 2011, 02:10:44 PM: If you set it in there, it will stay in place and not look broken. Better than no cover at all :D

Let me know what you think. Its off a PCE Duo, but it matches a US Duo also.
