In the early 90s Golden State was one of the few sources for 67-72 parts. I ordered lots of stuff from them, but whenever I had a problem, their customer service was really bad. I could get in touch with someone, but they rarely did what they said they would. I once returned a "lifetime guarantee" mirror, but it took 6 weeks for them to send me a replacement. Turns out they were filling new orders before warranty replacement orders, so my order stayed at the bottom of the pile. I wrote a letter to their president, who sent my mirror, an apology letter, and a gift certifcate, but their service never got any better. That was 8 years ago, so things may have changed.
