I'll agree. My brother (auto mechanic) has the philosophy of "any two". Cheap, Fast, Good. You can get it Cheap and Fast, but it won't be good. Or you can get it Fast and Good, but it won't be cheap. Or you can get it Cheap and Good, but it won't be fast.

I'm getting rid of the cheap $9 radio antennas that I have on my Vanagons and replacing them with the $40 OEM ones because the cheap ones don't retract all the way down, which makes putting the car covers on a PITA.
