or what to tell them autozone here doesn't know anything
Better yet, avoid the know-nothing places like AutoZone and other retail-oriented parts places. Check at NAPA, Carquest, or other parts store that tends to cater more to the repair shop than the off-the-street customer. They'll know exactly what you need.
Otherwise, if that's not an option, I think I remember AutoZone having the stuff I mentioned in their Help! section. Only problem with this is you end up usually buying more than you need. A place like NAPA would probably have those little elbows and stuff available individually instead of having to buy a pack of them.
I still sometimes shake my head in disbelief that AutoZone is either #1 or towards the top of the heap for auto parts stores. I can't physically see how it's possible with the poor quality of their parts, and even poorer quality of their employees.
It's an ok place to buy floor mats and tire shine, but that's about where my loyalty ends. I'll only buy from them if I know they have a particular brand I want (like Performance Friction brakes, or Goodyear Gatorback belts) that nobody else carries, and I cringe whenever I have to walk in the place.
Can you tell I had a(nother) bad experience with AutoZone today?
