They used to be "Poke yer eyes out" expensive a number of years ago... They must have solved the supply problem...
I guess DT has NOS that was bought when the price was eye watering.... Pays to shop around, plus FCP has a lifetime warranty on parts one buys there.
If I had been home and had some time I probably would have done some investigating first. I have a feeling they are getting the part from a dealer. Some shops will only use oem parts. Oh will. I will just be glad when he gets it back.
