Would You Accept This From Ecp?

[john-melbourne 6]

Hi Guys,

 

Just took delivery of a heater matrix from ECP, opened the box and it looked like this:

 

​

 

Is that acceptable for a heater matrix?

 

Thanks

 

John

It probably would work ok, but I would reject personally

[allanallen 528 2 Cars]

I wouldn't accept it

[Ryan 99]

I wouldn't either.

[john-melbourne 6]

Cheers fella's

 

I ordered it online so hopefully i can take it back to a shop!

I had one that turned up like that too, was it the packaging where it's a flimsy box that lets the matrix just bounce around in there? The one I had still worked but it's an eyesore, isn't it!

I would buy the Valeo one from Mr Autos website

[john-melbourne 6]

Good news.

 

It's a little known fact but you can actually return anything you buy online/mail order within 7 days of receiving without question. You would however have to pay for the shipping costs back to them.

 

By the sheer fact it's arrived damaged then they should pay for this, regardless of what their T&C's are.

I'd return it and buy this one from me, I guarantee it will arrive undamaged, genuine OE too

sod paying £15 for an used item! there are nissens items on ebay at £30.

[farmer 328 1 Cars]

Pains me to say this but I agree with Mei they are so cheap to buy new

[Mac Crash 78 1 Cars]

Well, that's double the price... and OE is important to a lot of people.... perfect example is my pug engine bay, Bosch everywhere... only thing that failed recently was the French Ducillier ignition amp (125,00mls) not bad.... replaced it with the Bosch amp from a 185,000 miles GTi, running sweet, you pay for what you get, pal, I'd rather buy used OE than new patterned crap

Didn't it increase to 14 calendar days last month?

[farmer 328 1 Cars]

15 quid extra for new pipes and o rings etc, not much to pay.

 

All the wee extras being NFP individually

You need to revise your listing for "early style" rear lights

I think you're right, I'm always in the past, hence why I own a 205 :-)

They're earlier than mines? ))) tell me what they are then, please)

[welshpug 1,657]

the Nissens units myself and DCC bought came with pipes o rings and was stamped valeo.

[Mac Crash 78 1 Cars]

You saved that up and could have said... well, £15 is a fair price for those on a tight budget

[jackherer 543]

The photo shows late phase 2 lights, September 1990 onwards. They might not have been original fitment on your car.

Your listing is for ph2 lights. The earlier cars have the reverse within them, and an orange section of lens for the indicator.

I would have spent 5 mins straightening those fins then fitted it. There's a good chance you'd catch a couple of fins when fitting it anyway. Plus I am impatient so would rather finish the job there and then than wait for another or have to travel to the shop for a replacement.
