dont worry, kill away. i was just thinking that between removing them from the car, and shipping them, and paypal feels, i thought 11.50 was reasonable. but then again i didnt look up the part, just kinda winging it. if he'd rather do that, then by all means go for it. i didnt mean to seem like i was "pulling something over"
happy days!

well is 4.78 x2 plus shipping either 5 $ flat rate usps or 15 ground shipping LOL, but new is always good even if it runs you a few more bucks

I just don't see the point of buying 15 year old parts when you can buy new if available.

I often see people looking to buy plastic parts that are probably in poor shape from sitting out in the sun for 15 years. Might as well replace it with new and it will out live the car. Factory parts aren't always expensive.

Carry on all.

very true. it always seems that BMW screams "MONEY" but when it comes to cheap plastic pieces, theyre just as cheap as honda plastic. BUT the difference from new to used is life EXPERIENCE. the Fact that one is just new artificial piece of interior, Or the 15 years of Driving and Cruising that that piece has experienced....AND still going to experience. Dont let the part die with the car!

A "new and unused" plastic part wasn't necessarily manufactured last week. Some of this sort of thing could have been sitting in a warehouse for years.
