caliper pins??????????? help !!!!
my right rear caliper pins are bent. So i go to Napa and get new ones, well they are an inch shorter and too fat to fit in the holes! 
call round nobody else has them...so ordered from chevy dealer
pick them up today and WALA!
they are an inch shorter also.
parts guy knows less than nothing
anyone know where I can get the correct size caliper pins for the rear caliper on a 2002 corvette?

Thanks for the plug guys. I started out by asking him what part number he got from the other dealer and he gave me the number. The part number is correct.
Now it is 1 of 2 problems.
They could have been packaged wrong, which I doubt. Someone could have previously used the incorrect pins in the rear.
The question is, will the pins purchased work.
