Default I could use some advice

Hi Everyone, I'm new here but would appreciate any advice or help. I own a 2004 s2000 and just recently took all ins. except liability off due to financial stress. How Stupid! Shortly thereafter my baby was violated to the extent of both seats,rails,brackets, steering wheel, shift knob etc. Not sure if they messed up my steering column. I am just devastated and don't even know where to start. Just filed a police report and now have to figure out if it is worth it and how to go about putting it back together. I love this car but it does have close to 90k on it. Any ifo appreciated on anything including how to find replacement parts etc. Thank You! Sad day in AZ.
Shane

forget oem, i'd say go all aftermarket replacements (used) and you might be on the road again having spent under $1k.

here, check out the s2ki makertplace:

ebay, craigslist, etc.

Ouch, that's no fun.

As stated above, keep an eye on the market place. You should be able to find all the parts you need on this site

Thanks guys for all the help. Did find a pair of 01 seats on Craigs list. Not sure if they will bolt up yet. Steering wheels next. Shane

Here are a couple other ideas. First, put the items that you need in the signature of your profile (ie WTB - seats, rails, steering wheel . . ). And then post away, tryign to visit as many areas of the boards as possible. This may well help turn some things up, as owners often have extra items but don't want to go thru the hassle of posting them up for sale. I've gotten several items like this, including the hard-to-find Ricks USDM smoked diffusers. Just be sure that your posts are on topic and not a blatant attempt to spam things up.

Second, reach out to the AZ regional forum. Locals are usually very helpful.

Good luck.
