Hard to know (without ordering one to examine it) whether the Genuine GM part is any better than the cheap knock-off.

The OEM outside mirrors on my Lumina were made in Canada; and of wonderful quality. The Genuine GM replacement mirrors are made in China, and the shiny black paint goes grey and rough in about six months. I've got original Canadian mirrors that are twenty years old and they look better than a six-month-old over-the-GM-parts-counter Chinese JUNK mirror I bought.

Be careful with Genuine GM parts. I think some of them are sourced from the same aftermarket companies you'd avoid if you had an actual choice.

Ten trillion to start with, increasing as needed from there, PLUS compensation for the sickened, and "wrongful death" settlements for the families of those who didn't survive. END trade with Communist China.
