I agree that $35 is nuts but I was just wondering why you are already having to replace those ***** on a new car? Did something break? Something get stolen?

Coulda swore that I paid $15 or $17 each for the 2006 ***** with the chrome bling ring. If those are the ***** you are referring to, I can backtrack my purchase records and confirm.
