Agreed, agreed, ... with the individual stores...
but when the guy at the counter can't just give
you a 7127 gm alternator and needs to look it up
as a 'model specific part'... it SHOULD then have the right
components attached for THAT application.
so in this case... yes..they are jerks..and it WAS the
wrong part as requested! :-)
And no..it's NOT an industry standard. Go to a GM dealership
and you'll get the right part. Ask them about pulling the
pulley and fan, and they'll tell you it voids the warranty!
...just did it yesterday. :-)
