    This. I was gobsmacked when I got the quote. There was an audible THUMP as my jaw hit the floor. A higher price for inferior parts?! WTF.

    I know right. I got my quote from my inside mini guy and was like WTF are they gold plated? :lol::lol:

    He told me I know you are not going to buy these and put them on your car but that's the best price I can give "cost" .

    He even told me to buy something better because they fail all the time.
