Years ago I would have suggested NAPA - they seem to only have the rears now. It might be worth a call to ask.

All of the resellers seem to have the front (2-piece) so I guess you either toss a coin OR pick up the phone and discuss them with a senior sales representative. I'd want a confirmation from them that there are no installation issues recorded against their inventory, a reassurance that they'll cover the ship "both ways" if you have issues. I'm assuming that you have the older still intact to compare. If not well ....... You mention broken but if you've all of the hardware and understand how they need to be terminated you should be fine.

Most post here with install issues but they generally appear not to understand how it works and are missing parts required for the routing and anchoring.

This routing is quite accurate and if you don't have it all you need anything that's missing. #28 is the most frequently the problem. I'm quite sure it belongs at the C-beam but I haven't done one of these for many years. The FSM information at the wheels is good but doesn't cover it all.
