I used the cheap a$$ paper ones that came with the Pacesetters. I didn't like them from day one, but was too impatient to order a better gasket.
Luckily, mine are fine still, after about two years. I keep waiting for one to go so I can order the ones from Moe's and the locking bolts, but as long as it ain't broke, I ain't fixin' it...

I can't believe that they pulled that on you. I would be pretty pissed and would never go back there again no matter what.

+1!!! its so hard to trust anyone these days, and most mechanic shops/muffler shops think people are all morons and just do whatever they want.

my father has a 2000 jeep xj that kept throwin codes, shop replaced all the 02 sensors, didnt work so they got him to buy a whole new computer, still didnt work, still codes.
they didnt wire up the new o2 sensors. i plugged them in and hasnt had a problem since.
he is out $500 on the computer alone.
