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?

$31.50 + shipping here http://www.trademotion.com/partlocat...&siteid=213951, so you didn't really do that bad at the dealer.

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.
