You had the product I wanted, a Turbo 350 shift indicator insert, shipping cost was reasonable, and I could use PayPal. The part arrived within time schedule stated.
Thanks

4 Stars for a good sales product
January 7, 2025

Would have given 5 stars, but I was given wrong information on the chat so I didnt buy more. Payment would not go through and was told I couldnt use the delivery adresse i put in. I removed one product and all went fine with same US address. It was the limit on one of my credit cards that blocked the payment.

Ecklers used to be a very good and reliable source for classic car parts and accessories. They were a little higher priced than the competition, but it was worth it because I could always rely on Ecklers for the hard parts to find for my 1971 El Camino, and my 1970 Corvette convertible. However my most recent experiences were horrible. They started using Fedex Smart Post which terrible and losses packages on a regular basis. I had one part that was in Stockton for over three weeks and Fedex stated that only Ecklers could file a lost package claim. When I called Ecklers, all of the staff now work remotely and it is obvious that they are distracted by issues at home and are unable to provide good customer service. I ended up ordering the part again without receiving a refund for my original part. I have little confidence that I will receive the second part, and I have had to pay double the price. Unfortunately, Turn5 is an E-Commerce company and not a car parts supplier and the lack of service shows it. Now I will log into ZIP Corvette to look for my parts. No more Ecklers!

Hello Mike,

I'm sorry to hear about your most recent experiences! I was not able to locate your order without an order number unfortunately. Given the chance, I would like to make this right by reviewing your order and check on the refund for the lost package claim. Please feel free to reach out to me directly at ext. 1320 or via email.

Thanks,
Desiree

Disappointing

Picture and description led me to believe it was the full bezel. I never would have paid $75 for just the decal.
