Hiya,
In EE 1, Can anyone help show me how, if it’s even possible, to call a plugin’s method from within an extension’s method? … don’t really want to duplicate all my plugin’s code again inside the extension.

Try something like this in your extension:
if (!class_exists('Plugin_name'))
{
include_once PATH_PI.'pi.plugin_name.php';
}
$PI = new Plugin_name;
$return_value = $PI->your_method('argument1', 'argument3');Depending on what you need you could also create a super class that you plugin class and extension class both inherit from.
