yeah I've noticed there's a bunch of parts on these that you can get stupid cheap from the dealer vs online...especially the weatherstrip clips lol.

is the alternator on these the water cooled ones like I've seen on some of the youtube videos?

also, quick question. While I'm in there I'll probably do the timing cover gasket as well and was thinking about swapping the water pump for a new one and doing a coolant flush. should I stay with the oem one with the plastic impeller or get one of the aftermarket ones with the metal impeller?
