Was just going through the Ecklers and their prices seem higher on some items. I just ordered Z06 screens and front and rear letter inserts from East Coast Corvettes. I got 10% off and free shipping. They are running some sort of special now on selected in stock C5 parts.

Dont waste your money on them. Fred Beans Chevrolet has the ZO6 Screens for $111 shipped to your door. Order the Red/Clear taillamps and harness from GMpartdirect.com for $150 shipped. Those are the best deals you will find on those products.

I got ripped off by ecklers. I ordered a simple rear license plate frame that I had seen in there mag for months. I went online and it was more expensive. I was in a rush so I went ahead and ordered it, thinking that they went up on the price. Next mag that came out it was the same as it always was.

They will over charge you if they get the chance.

Some products are good quality and some are garbage, you have to know what your looking for. What really Ticks me off is the HP claims that they print on there products and, yes there prices are high, Example I paid $550 delivered for my Borla 2 tip exhaust Ecklers wants $690.00 + delivery = over $700.00. I have purchased many items from Ecklers BUT I have never paid the price in their catalog, they will drop there price if you ask. Buyer Beware.
