That's the going rate. Same price at Bekkers: http://www.bekkers.com/Merchant2/mer...Category_Code=. You can find tube type cheaper, but the OEM style I have not seen.

Yeah...for some reason they're MUCH cheaper aka $500 when the car is built with it, don't know how that makes any sense.

Just compare them to the Brabus $1,500 door panel trims and they will seem cheap?
