the GM dealer offers direct factory replacements for
118.00 each. are they worth it or has anyone had luck with the
much cheaper aftermarket ones ?

do what i did. I go mine from advanced auto and bought one with lifetime warranty and installed it only took about 15mins. Well keep the box because a week later my other side went bad. I noticed right and left are the same part # so i took out the old one cleaned it up and made it look new. Then i took it back in the same box and said i just got this a week ago and it went out already so they swapped it out buy one get one free.
