We have to remove a brand new windshield to replace all the New trim clips made by a popular vendor. They're so brittle they all break as soon as you try to install the trim. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)
More than 3 hours of labor generated by using substandard parts. Seems unfair to charge my customer and I'm not happy about eating that either, except that I'm the one who recommended the vendor. Never again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Buyer beware. I'm going back to Genuine Porsche. |

Yes, it makes sense to offer more than the 19 clips as things do happen.
Sometimes you can lose a pin or one of the clips might have a small defect that gets missed when they are packaged up. So it's nice to have at least 3 or 4 extra clips when you embark on this project. |
