My Ride: 530i SMG
Default Need help finding an smg transmission!!!!

Hi guys,
It`s been 3 months since i started looking for a USED SMG transmission for my 2004 530i.
I purchased one 2 months ago from a place from Texas and it ended up it was a manual gearbox...no SMG. Now i`m still waiting to get my $$$ back. They lied to me for another month that i will get an SMG and the transmission is on its way so i called for about 2 weeks every day to get a tracking number and i was getting the same answer "i will cal you back in 5 min". So i decided to tell them that i`m gonna go to the Police if they do not provide me a tracking number or my money back.

Now i started looking again for an used SMG transmission that will work on my car. Please help! Any website etc etc will help.

Thank you.

Searching online i found one at this place Quality Used Transmissions but i don`t really trust these guys anymore. They say they have it in stock but when i asked for pictures or part number they don`t have pictures nor part number....which sounds weird to me.
