Default Find out why they are called stealerships this morning.....

Ok so my mirrors are power/heated, well ever since i bought it the power adjust has not worked in the drivers side mirror due to the gears being stripped, so i took it to the dealer this morning, and they said the mirror needs replaced (really? i couldn't tell. idiots.), so i asked how much.

Dealer - "Oh about 5 and a quarter"

Me(being the smartass i am) - "Oh cool, $5.25"

Dealer - "No, FIVE HUNDRED TWENTY FIVE"

Me - Bell on door rings and me and my truck leave.

1a auto has my mirrors for 250$ a pair. WHAT THE !

highway robbery.

Brand new aftermarkets are way cheaper. Just don't have the fancy heat wave on the glass.

Yea i seen them on 1A auto, I knew how much i could get them aftermarket before i even went in, just went in to see if i could get it done atleast reasonably so i didn't have to order them and do it myself. But so much for that.

They are very easy to install, shouldn't have any problems.
