I love Rock Auto clearance sales
« on: June 14 2012, 11:38:37 AM »
Except - I end up buying shit I may not need, but I can't resist with the prices. :)

The "UNITED IGNITION WIRE parts are supposed to be battery cables, we will see..

Regular price on the MOOG Stabilizer bar link kits for the Cadillac is $24.79.. Snagged for $2.27 ea.

$3.09 for Halogen low beam headlights was awesome too.

Have you had verified success? I wondered if these would end up being mis-labeled parts, returns etc.

This is the second large clearance parts order I have placed - no issues so far.

The only repackaged-returned parts I have gotten were regular non-clearance parts. (Radiator, and AC Accumulator)

Got the package today - the $3.62 cables are indeed battery cables. Gauge looks to be a bit thin - I would think they are worth more than $3.62 in scrap copper alone.

Overall, killer prices (The Cadillac stabilizer end links are ~$35 regular price) - but booo on the packaging.
