my comment is 1000% accurate.

Stock plastic Y fitting is trash can material, I am using a stainelss steel y and tossing that plastic garbage in the trash can.

OMG...Pull your head out, man. It's easy to spend $32 for a SS Y when you're buying one. Try buying 8 million of them and see how it works out for you. I'm glad they didn't spend that or have that mentality on this car or it would've been $350,000 and it never would've been produced to begin with.

Look, I'm probably the biggest GM hater here but even I don't see an argument here. My cheap plastic crap has lasted 20+ years and it's still seems to be ok. I'm not going to get upset because it didn't last 150 years like your SS part that cost 128 times as much.
