I'm glad you are pleased with them, but the rest of us would love to see the pics.

They aren’t OEM. Every c5 visor for sale in the country is made by one place in China and I know the guy that has them made. Every vendor sells his product. They come into the country in batches by the container load. He’s making a killing. He also makes the C6 ones with or without the homelink option.

Ecklers isnt being upfront with their claim being made by the same makers as OEM

They aren’t the same manufacture as OEM because Ecklers gets them from Greg in Atlanta, who had them made in his own/partnered plant that never had anything to do with GM. Many other reproduction parts (C4 consoles, bezels, C2/C3 chrome bumpers, etc) are done by the same outfit. All aftermarket produced by a guy with willpower and drive, and distributed by all the typical vendors. I’ll say his visors are better quality than oem and should last longer.

Yes, but technically in China no foreigners can own more than 49% of their own company over there. So you have to partner with someone and that Chinese entity owns 51% of the company.

It's like that in every other country but ours. Anything's for sale to the highest bidder in the USA. Kind of makes me sick to see our country being sold out (and off) like this.
