If you havent replaced yours or been behind the back seat in a while... better check em. Those things get brittle and crack. Luckily when I went to put my new carpet in, I checked mine. As I pulled on one to inspect it... it cracked and fluid ran all over.
You can only imagine what could have happened if the new carpet and seat covers were installed and then the lines broke when pressuring up the system.

SInce I posted in the thread mentioned above I moved things around in photobucket so the pic don't show up. I figures this would be a good place to post the similarity between the pumps and lines in our cars and my Sebring convertible. As I can see other than the electrical connector they really havent changed. May be an economical place for parts as many are showing up in the junkyards now.
