Trunk Weatherstripping
#11
I'd have to agree with the majority of your rant. I've been guilty of the same thing a couple of times, and every time I ended up buying a better quality higher priced part that I should have bought in the first place. Although, I do have to say that price doesn't always ensure quality. I've experienced that also. Several parts from highly advertised manufacturers did not match the hype and the manufacturer's reputation. Getting back to the weatherstripping, after looking a some photos of trunk lids it looks to me like my weatherstripping is thicker than most of the photos. So, just because it 'fits' doesn't mean it's correct. Too bad. Stuff like this should not even be sold, in my opinion. It takes advantage of those of us who are not 'experts' in parts procurement.
