I once asked Al Lepore of A&L paarts why he did not make a headlamp socket asssembly, as the repros were really poor. He said it would cost $10,000 to make the tooling, back then. How many would you need to sell to break even?
I am glad we have what is available, even though some is rather poor quality. There are parts that are made by more than one supplier, and the quality varies. I had a customer bring me rumble lid stop brackets from Mac's and they looked like they were made in India in someone's back yard with a hammer. I told him to get better ones, and he ordered from Bratton, and they were correct, and much stronger. It pays to shop around.
