Well, yeah, that too. I guess time and GM adhesive don't mix. The
local Cad dlr says $156.48 EACH PLUS TAX which is about what the on-line
place will do delivered, no-tax. I pinged him to see if he would match
that price full up and get them to me quicker.

Well, yeah. I have a call into the Cad dlr, a Chev dealer doesn't seem to
have a parts guy working today. Maybe I can leverage that price (whatever
it is) against them, see what they will do. It pisses me off though that
the part was crap to begin with, bad adhesive or something, it appears this
happened to a lot of cars of that vintage. There was some sort of NHTSA
report on it, but I couldn't find a recall or tech advisory or whatever it
is they do. It was actually sort of dangerous, my daughter was driving in
the dark, an oncoming car hit a puddle which splashed up either knocking off
the lenses or they were already gone and the water shattered the bulbs, or
both -- no lights, YOW! Fortunately the brights worked til she got home.
Car only has about 60k miles on it, so has not had a lot of road time over
the years.

So here is the breakdown for one headlamp assembly (though I only need
the
lenses, I need to buy the whole deal)
Part Shipping Total
$130.19
$28.64
$158.83
$30 shipping for one part? They maybe weigh 3 lb, probably fit into a
postal service flat rate box.

it's not a terrible conclusion to reach. i simply don't know. i do
know
that i can generally do better from flow than i can from the the local
dealers i've tried and many GM dealers are fairly reasonable for parts
and
service relative to what is seen in the euro import world

shipping is slow, however, and you do have to be careful about

I get the idea that the prices shown are Flow's cost, and all the

is
included in the shipping and handling.
