Hello Brian W., As our internet parts person told you a few times, we did not send you the wrong part. You ordered the wrong part. The parts description is plastered all over that listing. The part was purchased 84+ days ago through Amazon. Amazon’s return policy is very specific that returns must happen within 30 days. Dropping as many “F” bombs as you did in all the emails was totally unnecessary. Take some personnel responsibility for your own mistakes. Best, Daniel Briggs Parts and Service Director Elmhurst Toyota
