Two years ago my family bought a Harly Eagle for inside my siisy bar. My wife gave the guy the dimesnions of the opening when she ordered it. I went to install it and it was about 3 inches too tall.

I returned to the dealer and showed them the problem. They ordered another one and charged me an additional 15 bucks. I thought there was a difference in materials or styles to account for $$.

When I received the second one and took it home, it was still 1-1/2" too tall. It was exactly the same as the first, but just a couple inches shorter. I looked at my receipt and realized the extra 15 bucks had been for a restocking fee for the order they got wrong, not once, but now a second time.

The second emblem still sits on my work bench. I am waiting for a day when I feel like stopping by the dealer and planting it squarely where it belongs. I am wondering if when the parts guy is walking around, he will appreciate the extra inches.
