    www.mileoneparts.com has that part (51711946434) listed at $7.40. Says list price is $9.25, so you should be able to get it for $9-$10 at the dealer.

    They charge you shipping after they've got it boxed up. They seem to charge only what it actually costs. So they've got to know the size & weight of the box to figure out what the shipping will cost. And to do that they need your order boxed up and ready to ship.

    I'd call up your local stealer and ask what they want for it. I'm guessing that you'll pay $8 or $9 to ship that part from Mileone (which is about the minimum charge from UPS). Making it a $16-$17 part after you add shipping. If that's all you want to order from them I'd bet that ever your high-priced stealer would charge a little less than that.

    Local dealer $18.38 which surprises me... only twice the dealer price. Figured it would be more.

    Just got a package from Mileone and decided to get an idea of what they actually charge for shipping. I was charged $28.11 to ship this order. And when I put the info into the UPS cost calculator I was given a quote of $29.95.

    So it looks like they're just charging you the discounted rate they're getting from UPS and no more.

    Seem to only really be able to get a hold of them through email. That online messages thing on the website hasn't ever worked for me. And it's hard to get a hold of them over the phone.
