[s-cars] Heater core brand choice/discrepancy ?

[Steve Mills]

Get the OE one from genuineaudiparts.com, and avoid buying Meyle anything
whenever humanly possible.

I got a non-OE heater core (forget who the MFG was) from autohausaz, and it
didn't turn out to be much of a bargain. It didn't fit well, and started
leaking in under 6 months, so I had to redo the whole job. The aftermarket
blower motor started chirping about the same time, so I ended up replacing
them both with OE parts.

In January....

in 2 feet of snow....

and 20 degree temps.

Never again.
