Kim,

Sorry to hear of your problem.  I'm sure you have learned from this but in
case others missed a very important point, here it is.

Never take the old parts off of your car before checking that all of new
parts are there, and that they are what you ordered.  It only takes one
time to totally screw up your life...okay, maybe a little dramatic.  You
must have started cutting the old stuff off before checking the package.  I
bet you never do that again 8^).

PS Hasn't it been quite since the 'Bubba's' signed off for their weeks of
self imposed exile?
