ok.....cry about it. Go to a parts store and get something that isn't of the same quality as a factory direct part.

Yup do you know WHY!!!!


They have upgraded the POS that they was selling to a better one...ALso you didnt mention it comes with , instructions for cutting the cover,and a bracket either did you........It is worth it trust me!!!!!


The old one that used to be about 50 bucks had soooo much problems and causing the tens to give out and then your timing belt falls off and bent valves baby!!!!!!


So yeah you got a good deal!

OEM parts, are the real deal. I take my B series swapped Civic racing here and there and had one aftermarket seal leak. For everyday driving aftermarket replacement parts are ok. But if you even think about flooring it, highway run, etc - OEM parts hands down.

What a dumb thread. I'm all for bitching about overly priced parts, but in this case it's not and serves it's purpose.
