Is yours cracked? If so look for a replacement from an earlier car, as in 86-89. The earlier ones are made completely of rubber or plastic. Later ones are made of metal coated in that material. The metal and plastic expand and contract at different rates which causes them to crack. I went through 2-3 of them before I realized this and switched to an earlier part. I haven't had it crack again in 2 years. They do seem a little more porous than the nice smooth updated ones, but if you keep a good coat of conditioner on it it will stay nice. I'd rather not take out all of those little tiny screws again.
