OBTAINING CHRYSLER PARTS by steve132

Does anyone know of a website where Chrysler parts can be ordered? I am looking for body side moulding stips for both doors on the passenger side doors of my 99 300M. I inadvertantly damaged them (won't go into detail on that) and I was quoted a price of $140 for both stips by a collision repair shop and a total repair estimate of over $200. Looking in my shop manual, they seem easy to replace, it's just a matter of buying them and then matching up the paint color and attaching them to the door as the shop manual instructs. I'm hoping I can do a lot better than $140. Any websites?

300M special- Is a less firm ride possible? by cbridges

Greetings,
I very recently bought a 2002 300M Special from a friend of mine. 24,00 original miles & it is absolutely immaculate. Question: When the original tires need replacing, is there a tire choice, or wheel swapping choice, that would soften the ride just a bit? I commute across Los Angelels, rarely over 70 mph, & our rough roads keep the car unsettled. I would happily sacrifice a bit of the cars great handling for some added comfort. I'd welcome suggestions.

I hate to see a Special wasted, but you could try getting some 17" wheels and tires from a regular 300M.

Thank you for the suggestion. I will hunt for a set of 17 inch wheels. I assure you, the Special is not wasted at all. If not for the rough pavement conditions, I would not change a thing. Just a little more forgivness in the ride quality will make for a near perfect driving experience from my perpective. best regards, Chris

I would not get the 17" wheels I would go to a reputable tire shop and find out what series you can go up to without rubbing and you will get the ride yo are looking for. possibly a 50 series or taller. you will be surprised what a 45 to 50 will feel like. almost like a Cadillac almost. plus you will keep the look

The problem with this radio is a common one on just about all 2001 and 2002 Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, etc. models. It is actually the microprocessor in the radio going bad. I'm not sure why it happens but I have repaired several of them. It does require replacement of the micro with a new version that will permanently fix the problem. You can take it to the dealer and they will replace the radio for you but it is expensive. It can be fixed. I can email you the details. alp442yahoo.com

I'd like to have those details, too. I believe my email is visible in my profile. Let me know when/if you send them. It's my spam collection email and I rarely check it.
 
Better yet, just post the details here so everybody can see it.
