Hi John, yes shipping to Alberta will probably be a killer but it's all part of the hobby for us up here in the great white north.
Thanks for the ebay link. I really don't know what I'll have to spend as I'm just starting to look but I'd probably pull the trigger on that if it had the right codes. Since it doesn't I should probably keep looking.
Just for curiosities sake, what would you ask for your empty E45 housing?
I'm also still a little unclear about what the 65 9779822 housing physically looks like. Would you be able to send me some good clear pics of what the casting and webs look like? This way I'll be able to quickly recognise one if I come across one. From there I could dig deeper in the date and axle codes. If you can send me some pics I'd really appreciate it.
