Has anyone used a clutch kit from the seller below for $97.97? I have been reading threads that there are fake Exedy clutches on eBay. I also noticed that some cheaper kits only say that the cover is Exedy. Should I be concerned if the disc, throw out and pilot are not Exedy? Rockauto sells an OEM Exedy for $118.79 and I assume that's not a fake but you know what they say about assuming. I'm just looking for an OEM Clutch Kit for my 1999 Civic EX. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

That kit is legit. Some aren't, you have to read carefully. A lot of them have either an Exedy disc or pressure plate, but not both.

94EG8,
I noticed that also. What I don't want is a defective clutch! Rockauto sells Rhinopac/World Clutches. Never heard of this brand.

Normally when you buy a parts store clutch regardless of what brand name is on the box it's a hodge podge of parts for various manufacturers.

I put a Beck/Arnley clutch in a civic a couple of years ago for someone because they couldn't wait for me to order an Exedy clutch on Ebay. What was in the box was a Luk pressure plate, Exedy disc, SKF throwout bearing, and a no name made in Korea pilot bearing. Dynapak kits used to have an Exedy/Daikin pressure plate with a Valeo disc, I don't remember who made the bearings for those kits. I've never heard of Rhinopac/world clutches, but I suspect they're the same idea, mixed matched parts in a box.

Remember a proper Exedy kit is the very same clutch you'd get at a Honda dealership at a fraction of the price. $100 for a genuine Exedy clutch kit is very reasonable.

I had the bad experience of a no-name throw out bearing that I installed in my Del Sol. Lasted about 500 miles. I still have emotional baggage from that dyi.
