Default Ebay headers???

Ebay has a header designated fora 2003 CivicDX or LX. Has anyone ordered this part from ebay and had problems with installation or the part not fitting? Any suggestions on how to make a safe buy?[8D]Thanks for any help you can provide.

Just say No to generic ebay headers. Chances are if you get it, it won't fit properly and it will last for only about a month before it breaks. For that kind of money, you're honestly better off going with a Megan Racing header, they're a not much more expensive than that, but they're of much better quality.

well if I spend $15 on a new bluray movie on ebay, how is that worse than spending $35 at the store for the same thing? Just wondering.

Sorry, let me clarify
There are some decently priced/discounted Injen, AEM, Tein, etc.items on ebay, some new andsome used (be cautious with used parts)
You get what you pay for when it comes to the off-brand/no name brands especially with automotive parts that are only $20 for an exhaust system, $15 for an intake system, etc.
For example Mu-Gen: it is no where near the quality of a real MUGEN part.
JDM-S/JDM-Style: not real "JDM" parts
Options Racing, Bullitt Racing, AutoKraz
The list goes on
But yeaI guess I needed to clarify that since he's asking advice on buying some movies and such
haha
