This is a brand new OEM dealership throw out bearing being sold with no warranty. If your clutch causes the T.O.B. (throw out bearing) to overextend it will ruin this part, so verify your pressure plates install height before installation.
This will only fit the AR5 transmission in the 2.0L Pontiac Solstice and Saturn Sky! If you have a 2.4L car you'll need this one here.
