Yet, you seem perfectly comfortable asking the question even though you obviously haven't stepped away from your computer long enough to call or go to a NAPA, Carquest, Auto Zone, Pep Boys, Wal-Mart, K-Mart, or any other store selling automotive parts and supplies in your area to discover that they are, in all likelihood, an in-stock item.

Google can certainly make one lazy.....and also limit - instead of enhance

- their knowledge of what is happening right in their own back yard.

Get your nose off the computer screen and go to a nearby auto parts store....or, at least call them.

Just becaue the almighty Google doesn't show something, doesn't mean that it doesn't exist....but, you have to be a little more creative in your search.

Forgive me for being slightly off topic here. A few years ago I cracked my windshield at the edge, possibly by using a tool too close to the molding. The crack came out about 3" and was headed for the main viewing area. I called a local glass and detail shop. The young girl there said, "We always tell everybody to tape a penny to it." Well, my car is worth slightly more than a penny so I blocked off a small square area with epoxy around the crack and an inch further. The crack made a U-turn and came back to the edge. Now it just looks like I have a park-pass there rather than an illegal window. It's been good for five years. Be careful with tools around glass. You may be buying a new chip-free window.
