Garage Opener Plastic Knob for $47.88???
Garage Opener Plastic Knob
I just had the plastic knob on the garage door opener compartment of my '98 ML320 break and the plastic replacement knob at the dealership had a part number of 163-825-00-55 and was $47.88!!!
Could this be correct? Has anyone else replaced one of these little plastic parts and how much was the part?

The list price at Beshoff Motorcars in San Jose, which is directly owned by Mercedes as far as I know, is $42.00 according to their website. But when you call them they usally try to increase it. A common MB dealer ripoff.

I broke the same piece but my dealer told me the entire overhead console needed to be replaced for over $200 in order to fix. I never bothered to fix but thanks to your post I now will go ahead and order part. Thanks to all for the info.
