HEHE This is neat, to each thier own. For me the Summit catalog has been
best. 90% of time I do not know exact year or model a piece I need is off
of anf the Jegs, wrenchhead etc, force you to give car model year etc etc.
I found with Summit I could search by type of item and worst case find a mfg
website, to get a PN from and then return to summit to find price.. call me
backwards..
