Marcos Maniacs

Paul,

Just talked to the factory and the inserts are NOT stainless.  He said
they have been on the market since '97 and they have had no complaints
or returns due to disintegration.  Said that they probably have the same
life as a muffler.  For me here in California, it's not really a concern
because I try not to drive in the wet, and don't drive it in the winter
months.  When I do drive it I make sure the ride lasts long enuf to
dissipate any condensation that could form rust.
