Thank you very much, and I do respect your opinon!

I am located in St. Louis, Missouri. I do think the guy priced it as a deterrent because he didn't want to do the work. Don't get me wrong, I place a high value on skill an people's time (because I value my own skills and time very much) but I also believe in being fair.

I will try to take some pics of it with my digital camera and post them. Hopefully, someone will be able to either direct me to someone that can do it, or at least point me in the right direction.

The cool thing is that I could more than likely ship the replacement bezel/console anywhere for the work to be done, I don't think my truck would actually have to go to the shop. As long as the external size/shape/mounting of the housing was left unaltered, it should be a "drop-in" installation.

Thanks Again, and I welcome any and all advice!
