Guy tried to tell me to put it on and then decide.
Then kept insisting that it is the correct size for replacing the OEM. It took 3-4 emails to them to get them to accept a return.Am I wrong, but if something is listed as a replacement part, shouldn't you be able to expect its the same size as what its replacing?

Too many companies "making parts to sell" and not taking the time to make them right.
I tell ya - it's a wacky world!
