I see.  When I searched my email I found an email from them in december
with closeouts for my Golf, for which I bought a part from them.  I now
have registered my vanagon on there too for future closouts.  I bought a
radiator fan from them a few months ago.  It was on the "mystery, low
stock, unknown supplier" list for way less (including shipping) than I
could find from any other supplier.  I was excited when it arrived in a
pristine new Meyle box.  It works but is not well balanced and vibrates
much more than the original.  I think I heard Meyle sold its name rights so
who knows where this fan actually came from.
