Does anyone have first hand knowledge of their quality. For that price I could consider driving my car another year or two.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&amp;category=33583&amp;item =7944346805">ebay</a></li></ul>

The TRW/BAW arms on ebay are not TRW. They are BAW Sheng Mhau, a Taiwanese suspension parts manufacturer that has been accused of parts counterfeiting. The seller on ebay that is selling these BAW Sheng Mhau has a very misleading auction posting.

Tries to imply BAW is European, actually not even imply, he just comes out and lies. BAW Sheng Mhau is not associated with TRW whatsoever. I don't know how these guys can just make up a name like TRW/BAW that doesn't exist.

It's like me selling a Hyundai on ebay and calling a genuine BMW/Hyundai.
