Especially since I hit a deer in the rental car on my way back to the airport!
Originally I was on the hunt for original FE parts as well. And essentially all I found was crap and more crap. I got fed up fairly quickly and decided why the heck would I put original parts in a replica anyway. Made no sense to me, but I wasted time figuring it out.
