Default Bet you never seen this b4!

So last week i ordered my headers/ory from Teas Speed. I also placed an order for a 160* thermostat. Well two days ago they came in and the headers looked great but no sign of the thermostat, anywhere. So i called thim and was told that they couldn't ship out the thermostat because they were on back order. So i was told it would be shipped as soon as it came in. So i put the headers on and head to the exhaust shop today to get my new corsa welded on and as were checking for leaks afterwords i hear this strange rattle right in front of my cutout.....so i take the cap off and look inside....and what the hell do you think i see????? THERMOSTAT!!!!! melted and broken in about four pieces. The box or whatever it came in had apparently been shoved into the middle of the ypipe i guess...i never noticed it in there during the header install. Anyways the box was is obviously dissentagrated. When i called Texas Speed they told them asking for a new one they said they couldnt send me one cause i already received one. Well they told me after i couldnt find it that they didn't ship it....so i stopped looking. Anyways, guess i gotta get another one ordered.

Did you check the shipping ticket to see if was shipped. If it was left off the ticket then I think Texas Speed should send you a free one.
