Silly?  Imagine the technician's shock when he ordered a temp gauge
for an Anerican Olds Cutlass, only to find out that GM makes a metric
part for replacement.  And that the parts books don't mention it, but
GM automatically ships the metric part no. gauge out when the standard
gauge is ordered. Then try telling the customer that.  Good old GM.
