JFC - not to bitch, b/c I think my garage takes care of me overall, but $203.50 just for the part?! Does that sound right Rick?? I did a quick search online and found it for ~$120. Ugh Ok, I'm done.  |

The other $83.50 is the cost to locate a supplier for the part, place the part order, receive the part, inspect the part on receipt to ensure that it is the correct part, contact the vendor get a return material authorization for the incorrect part, repack the incorrect part for return to the vendor, to return the incorrect part sent in error, to receive the replacement part, inspect the replacement part to ensure that it is the correct part, to audit the statement to ensure that the shop is not charged for the incorrect part in addition to the correct part, processing the disbursement to pay the vendor.
When you buy a part over the internet, you take responsibility for performing all of these activites.

Power windows are the devil's own. How hard is it to roll up a window manually? A lot harder than you think. Try buying a car now days without power windows Yeah - I know. I was just bitching yesterday. It is next to impossible to buy a crank-window car these days, I'm pretty sure Honda stopped making any crank windows about 10 years ago (?) 2 years ago I had to get Xeon bulb replaced -- Ouch! |

That sounds about right. I had to get this replaced on my 91 Mazda MX6. Unfortunately, it was not the motor but a broken piece of plastic on the motor that had to be replaced - but couldn't because it was all one piece.
I've not seen a crank window for ages......
