Damaged part, Over-long Shipping

Use online YouTube technical videos
Any DIY'ers would be wise to utilize the YouTube instructional videos. The directions that came with my product were vague at best but I had already been instructed, via online videos, to my specific make and model replacement procedures and it WAS a breeze. 25 minutes.

Easy to install.
The kit came with a thermal cut-off and a fuseable link, the fuseable link was the correct part but the thermal cut-off was not the same part number. The link was the part that I needed and worked fine.
