Where's A Good Source for Accessories?
I went to FJ Mercedes in Newport Beach yesterday. Here's their pricing on some simple accessories:
iPod Cradle: $31 (it's $25 on mbusa website)
Tire Valve Stem Caps: $25 ($17 on mbusa)
All Season Floor Mats: $168 ($95 on mbusa) OUCH!
etc.
I hate being gouged! So I walked, but did pay too much for a quart of the Mobil 1 ESP M 5W-40 even though I don't need it right now.
Plus, they would not sell me the amplifier part that connects behind the COMAND unit to boost the volume of an iPod. Claimed it was for warranty repairs only.
So, where should I go, mail order or somewhere else nearby?
