Indeed ... I just went to my local FLAPS and got their stiffest iteration
for $18.00 and they work splendidly. In Utah it's Checker Auto, which
"I think" is part of Kragan's. That was 4 years ago with lotsa ups/downs
in between and still doing the Energizer Bunny thingy. I'm pretty sure
Pep Boys has the identical units displayed on their racks.
