Got taken for a ride at sears again. My beetle broke down in front of sears and could not be towed. So I had to let them do the work for me reluctantly. the part that I needed cost $25 at Oreily's but sears charged double for the same item and they purchased it from the same place" Oriely's. Those bone heads also charged more for a German car, Just happen to be the easiest car in the world to work on. MAN SEARS SUCK THE BIG ONE :bs: . 25 for me 57 for sears what kind of bs is that from sears boooooooo.

PS Kyle can we jail them???

There are lots of places online too. Mid-America motorworks has a good catalog and website. Cip1.com is good too.

JC Whitney is a bit shady. They list things in their catalog that they dont stock or have been discontinued. I received a catalog one day and called to place an order over the phone and they didnt have half of the stuff i needed.

Just my $0.02
