thats better then when i had my trans am. i went to an auto part store for a brake line. and had 3 people there try and tell me that my car was a brittish car and that they didnt sell brake lines for brittish cars there. so after 10 or so minutes of trying to convince them that the pontiac firebird trans am was an american car i gave up and said fine how about a brake line for a chevy camaro. in which they then tried to tell me that it wouldnt work on my car at which point i told them to just show me the brake line and i tool them out to my car screwed it into place. and was like wtf happened to it not working looks like it works to me. so went back inside to pay for it and had them look up the part # and sure enough the same part # was listed for the pontiac firebird trans am. at that point they all shut up and i have yet to return to that store.
but then again there arnt any auto part stores worth going to what ever happened to the days where you went to one and they knew what you needed even if you didnt. now days if they cant find it on their computer they asume it doesnt exist doesnt matter if you have the old broken one in your hand or not. lol
