shenanigans

Post by Ntyvirus1 » Wed Jul 16, 2008 2:41 pm

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% :shock: 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 :thumbup:
If I could just figure out how to meld the Outback and the Neon into one car...

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! :thumbup:

Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the back of the car. Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you're going when you hit the wall, and torque is how far you drag the wall with you.
