Best source for wood trim

Looking to replace front passenger trim in black birdseye maple. Local dealer wants $650 (approx)! They won't replace under warranty but i literally watched the crack in the lacquer grow for a few days!

How hard is it to match the original trim?

If you are talking about wood covering to passenger side instrument panel the part # is 21168008719D57 (for comparison shopping, parts.com $253). Unclip the trim near the steering wheel using a wedge and slide it to the right replacement trim will match but do not expect perfection. Request the service manager put you in touch with MBUSA rep covering dealership to approve warranty replacement.
