Should links to non paying Sponsor parts/cars be allowed on the VOA?

I really don't care what the outcome of this is, that's for individuals much more intelligent than me to debate. What I am thrilled to see is that this debate was allowed to take place, that shows progress whether you want to admit it or not.

And I agree with whoever said JonB needs to update his site, when I don't see it on his site, I assume he doesn't carry it. Yet, if you watch close when somebody inquires about a freak part, he almost always has it.

Mark I always give a sponsor last look, and the opportunity to price match. Most of the time they will , but even when they don't, if I can tell they are trying I will give them the business. I won't if the dollar figure is substantial but if we're close I personally make the choice to support our vendors.

That being said I like free markets so I like information to be more open. The window regulator that got this whole thing started is interesting in and of it self. Dodge engineered a terrible part that fails left and right. The fact that any member is having to go out and replace these even at the new and improved cost bothers me. They should have been recalled. So I want our people to replace these as cheap as possible, PERIOD. I personally hope no one makes even a 1 cent profit on this particular part. Upgrades and general routine upkeep are different all together.

Exactly this. Also I hadn't a clue sponsors here were anywhere close to pricing I found elsewhere. I've read threads of these things costing $600-$1200 on other sites.

As far as the question about the regulators: mine went out on the passenger side of my 08 ACR and was repaired under the factory warranty. I should say, repaired under the extended warranty.

You guys do realize that they split the thread up so you could talk about the window regulators in the other thread, right?
