Default Genuine GM parts
For the all American Sports car....

Guess the Mexicans were charging too much

The ignition switch now comes with a black back instead of the famililar green one and a big sticker that say's " Made in China ".

This makes me sick

I have been buying genuine GM parts for over 47 years and the price has never stopped me from using them.

If the ac delco was made in usa, you probably wouldn't buy it because it was too expensive and then end up buying an off brand made in China.

I also am not a big fan of free trade, but money talks. Favored nation status didn't really work out so well for us in the long run, as predicted .
