Re: LMC Replacement Rocker Was Too Short

So what becomes of it (GM tooling) if it's not sold? Sent to China for scrap and then sent back to us as stamped steel patch panels? Only partially tongue in cheek there. I've also heard that after a while the tooling gets too old, worn out, etc to continue making the parts within tolerance. I'll admit I know nothing about manufacturing but to me that means that the dies or whatever they use to stamp steel with have just physically lost enough material that they are no longer accurate. Hopefully someone will chime in and set me straight if I'm way off here.

Keith?
