Yeah, that's a lot. Would make me think twice, too. ecstuning.com has it
for $30. Then maybe you can find a local import indy shop that would swap
it out for you for half the dealer's labor? If tell us where you are
located, someone may be able to recommend a place. Or ask around on
AudiWorld forums...
