    Anything you buy for a car that you do not have to **** around with, is well appreciated by at least by me. Thankfully I can work around most obstacles as they come up.

    Pat rescued the Wilcap name when the family was ready to walk away so he gets bonus points. The Wilcap catalogue had/has alot of product that he mostly/personally oversaw the production of. Can't blame him for cashing in.

    Totally agree. Could I make an adapter myself? Probably. But if someone else already did the R&D why reinvent the wheel? Especially if the part is fairly priced. There is certainly a price for the convenience of just ordering what you need and receiving a quality component that works in short order.

    There's always a balance between spending too much time on saving material vs. its value, but if a guy spends even thirty seconds actually thinking, a lot of the smaller stuff can get used up.
