NOS 9 Hole Hood Pad

[Ttype6]

That's terrible

It's terrible that the ones the Dealer sells has eight holes and incorrect lettering

 

[Ttype6]

Can someone fill me in on what the diff is between 8hole and 9hole insulators?

Thanks

One hole.

 

[pacecarta]

the missing 9th hole on the 8 hole pads is located at the rear center of the hood pad

the ones the dealer sells are 8 hole and have no printing since about four years ago
those 8 hole version with printing are getting rare , as mentioned 9 hole originals are very rare these days as they havent been available since 2000 or so
GM never changed the part # so the 9hole , 8 hole and the 8hole without script all carry the same gm part # on the box

and just because you dont have the pockets for one doesnt mean he cant set the price wherever he wants , they arent making them anymore and for the guy who needs a correct restoration part its still cheap , have you priced a set of rear fillers lately

Even in awesome shape, a used one is worth a fraction of NOS. Because everyone's definition of "mint" is different.

All I can say is WOW!! If everyone thinks it is overpriced dont buy it. If you want to put a plain pad and have a screen print put on it for forty dollars why not go ahead and get a 200 dollar paint job in the process. As people have mentioned these are rare and make the car ORIGINAL because some people want that. Sorry to have offended a lot of you. I could have put free just pay shipping and someone would have complained. If you dont like the price dont buy it. If you search some old threads you will see the price is not way out of line.

Why do moderators allow free-for-alls in sale threads? They are for buying or selling, not conversations and opinions.

Thanks INEEDAGN. I learn something new everyday on this forum.

So...my OEM pad has 9 holes?

It's only a problem when someone tries to get over on the average car guy. Sure the "9 hole" has been discontinued but price it fair! No one is looking to pay your mortgage for a hood pad, wtf. Just sayin

 

[dmorgan]

P.S. The JO on ebay has been trying to sell his for a looooooong time. He can ask any price, but someone has to be willing to consentual rape.

 

[Franks86gn]

One hole.

Thanks Mr. Obvious...

 

[Franks86gn]

Well, let me explain it to you, A Hole....

Now that was funny!

Ttype6 should learn from this. LOL

 

[TurboV6Olds]

This is so true. If the price is too high and you want it make an offer and quit crying about what someone wants for a part that was bought in 1987 and is still in the original box.

 

[TurboTGuy]

Now that was funny!

Ttype6 should learn from this. LOL

Thank you, thank you......I'll be here all week....Try the veal!

 

[INEEDAGN]

Yeah but if it was on here for less than the going rate, someone on here would snag it up and relist it for profit. You know how I know this? Had it happen to me. More than one buyer has relisted my stuff for a profit.

DONE! with this thread. Tried to defend the seller and the free market system, hope it's not considered pissing on the thread...

 

[REAPER231]

I would just like to apologize to the seller it's not like me to do this . I understand the sellers comments , the man trying to sell a part . I meant no disrespect at all . Sorry Rick . Glws .
