Check and see if any of your local AutoZone's have it. If they do shoot me a PM, I'll send you a scan of a Friend's of an employee discount coupon. You'll get my 20% off. But lemme know by the 3rd because it expires that night.

yeah i did check autozone,napa, pepboys and nothing could be found. i did get a "new" one from a local radiator shop for $140 bucks its the same condenser from the baseline lancers not the rallyart models though.

PS : stay away from the ebay ac condenser they are absolute junk. I know i did order one did a leak test on it and found 3 leaks on it.

thanks for the help.

Check 1-800-RADIATOR. They may have it for less than 140
