so i thought id be productive 2day and go down to the closest dodge dealership to pick up some clips for my pillars ( i broke a couple). I walk into te part deptartment and ask the guy if they have any clips... $9.99 per clip. im thinkin to myself this has to be a mistake, afterll the part numbers thread says they shhould be at $1.60. so for shits and giggles i ask about the fuel injector cover ( which is officially called the fuel injector harness cover) and he says $120. shenanigans i tell u, shenanigans!!

Sad but true

Dealers will often mark up lower priced items as much as 300%...on items that cost less than $5.00 MSRP, it can be close to 500%

Our dealer doesn't do that.
Something interesting though. Is it the interior A-pillar clips you got? Part #4775846AA ? If so, the MSRP is now $5.00 each (we sell them for $6.00 retail for comparison)
Also, the current MSRP on the injector covers are $48.60 for non-magnum, $18.50 for magnum

My cat's name is Shenanigan. Fitting since my husband quotes that movie every day!
OP: sucks about the dealership; here I was thinking mine was bad but yours takes the cake. Least you were able to get the parts elswhere and avoid getting ripped off!
