Hmm.. that dealer is charging you retail or more..

The dealership here usually gives anywhere from 25% over cost to 10% under retail across the counter to most people... depending..

I have a bit of an "informal agreement" with the local dealer.. I just picked up a couple headlight assemblies (got tired of fighting haze) a few months ago,. I don't remember what I paid off the top of my head, but "cost" is WAYYY less than what you got quoted..

If you think they are expensive parts now, just wait 'til they are "obsolete".

I have a new-in-the-box 428 CJ oil cooler. Reproduction cooler (radiator), $850. New/OEM, $1500<.

Did you try fordpartspeople.com? I've ordered stuff from them before. I ordered the bumper cover next and will let you know when it arrives.

Waa, waa, waa .....

The Marauder will soon be 10years old.

Did you expect FLM to have parts made forever ? Do you think that warehouse space is *free* ?

You pay to play with OEM. That's the way it's ALWAYS been. *Especially for limited production vehicles.

This is the reason they get totalled out for relatively minor accident. The MM specific parts are so $$$. They tried use non OEM parts on mine when I hit the deer in 09. They were not happy when they could:argue:n't.

I second that.

I third that.
A lot of dealers charge lists plus 10%.
Tasca is cheapest and will meet/beat other prices.
If you see thier items on Ebay or Amazon do not buy there. Go directly to Tasca.
