Default Re: Talk about suckers

My money is on that there are two versions-- Who is going to manufacture that part? Do you have any idea how much it costs to have a part built, especially when there is stamping involved? It's quite expensive, and I'm thinking you'd never be able to sell enough to even recover the tooling and mfg. costs.

Because GM had to supply aftermarket parts by law, that is what you see. They changed the back mold for something else, or so that it fits multiple-applications.

Don't get me wrong-- Even paying $361 for that, at NOS-in-the-box and without question, seems a bit crazy.
