I'm measuring cutting and bending 48 inch 3/16 mild steel rods from Menards since I couldn't find any sanely priced stock rods for sale anywhere online for headliner bow conversion and waiting on 10 clips to install it.
6 Rods kit online over $120, 5x 3/16 steel rods at Menards $15.
Who is paying these rediculous prices?
