When you think our truck parts are expensive....... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ok, this is an example of how expensive parts are for late model cars, but it also shows you how bizzare (make that IGNORANT) some things are with late model cars.

Sometimes you just can't make this stuff up. This is a headlamp on a 2013 Infiniti QX50. I called the dealer to verify because my estimating system said this and I couldn't believe it. The second I started talking the guy said before I finished "Yes the lense and housing is twice as much as the whole assembly" LOL.

So it's cheaper if you buy all the parts as apposed to one of them?

You just can't make this stuff up!
