    Thats like Autokrafters sent me the wrong z-bar with the tag on it for the one I needed. And wouldn't admit it or refund me because I was out of the 15 day return window.

    I have nothing good to say about them. Especially since their backordering put me into having to wait until the spring rains ended to fix my car.

    I have used the Auto Krafters rear window gasket with no issues. There should be NO slack anywhere once the gasket is installed on the glass.
