Default New guy here... looking for some parts

Hi. The name's John, and I just picked up a 1988 928S4 AT w/ LSD a couple weeks ago. It had a lot of electrical gremlins, and I've fixed a bunch already (power windows, sunroof, headlights, fan, gas gauge and probably a few other things) thanks to my friends over at PP. Of course there are still quite a few more for me to tackle.
This is my first time posting here, so I wanted to give a little background... I've got an '88 944 that I've had a few years and will be selling now that I got the 928. I am looking for some parts for the car and was wondering if anyone here could help me out...

Things I def want:
- Fog light lenses (my lights work fine, but the the glass lenses are broken - both sides)
- 4" speaker grates for the doors (black).
- Rear speaker that goes directly behind the driver's (or passenger's) seat (there's currently a grill, but no speaker).
- Ashtray and frame it attaches to (black)
- Foam trim that goes around shifter, ashtray and clock (black)

Things I may want if the price is right:
- All 4 switches (Sunroof switch, Rear wiper switch, Both window switches)
- Headlight Relay
- Headlight washer relay
- Black carpet (w/ floormats if you've got 'em)
- Black stock shift **** (AT)
- Center console armrest/compartment
- The part of the passenger door trim that includes the armrest and vent

If you can help, please PM me and let me know what you've got and how much shipped to 06424.
Thanks,
John

Thank you. I'll try to get the car to clean up as much as possible, but I'm not sure how far spit and polishing will get me. The car was definitely repainted...poorly. I may have to save my pennies and have it resprayed properly this time. We'll see. Yup, I will be driving it soon. I saw the drive on 5/2. If I can fix a few things and transfer my registration from the 944 to the 928 in time, I'd like to go. But right now, it's still not registered or insured (I've only had the car for a few weeks). But I'll PM you for a copy of the route anyway... just in case. Maybe if this car's not ready yet, I'll take the 944, just to meet everyone and say "hi".
