And my alternator has the same lifetime warranty... Having said all that, I'm glad you got their attention, and talked them into adjusting their prices...
Says 33Si on spec sheet that came with it. I weighed it and it like half again the weight of the old 12si. It is the heaviest one i ever installed and arms are still recovering. After all i paid $78 OTD. which is about "right" given the recent devaluation of the dollar. Been to the supermarket lately?? Will add i thought it weird they and i felt better it was made in Mexico and not china, and it was available. May be able to finish running all the wiring today and will report back if anyone cares. Mechanics in the 4th Quarter is a real challenge.
