Well I been buying parts for over 40 years and it's a whole lot better now than back in the late 80's & 90's. I'm laughing here with my coffee in hand at this. Most of you have no idea what it took to build a truck 30 years ago. It's our fault the aftermarket is so sorry and expensive.

All of you are right and nothing is going to change it.

By the way the gasket has to be formed to the housing to fit when you put it together. If you have the old tail lights you should have the screws. It's not the vendor fault you didn't order them!

Oh and just to make it even worse you bought Chevy parts from a FORD parts place! CJ Pony Parts

Thanks for my laugh of the day guy's!
