Agreed about the Meyle products; crap.

My experience with misc rubber doo-dads is that if you don't get a dealer part you will be sorry. I used to think Meyle was OK. The parts seem to fit, but they don't last very long. They are a German company, but their stuff is all made in China at a very low cost. As gsxr pointed out, a few items they sell might be adequate for the job. It's difficult to be sure.

All it takes is one frustrating experience to make a person swear off everything Meyle.

What I can't seem to grasp is why it is so difficult for these aftermarket companies to make a piece of rubber properly. It's not a space shuttle, it's a piece of rubber.

Dealer parts FTW.
