Power Window Switch $$$ WOW!

[KC Dave]

The power window switch on the front passenger door was not working, and I am aware of the issue with these, so I tried to clean it, but no help. I then priced a new one... Keep in mind this is a single switch, not the 4 switch / lock from drivers side front.. Anyway:

Dealer: $72.00 (Plenty in stock.. At that price I wonder why?)
Oreileys: $56.00 (Special order part)
E-bay: $15.69 Shipped. (Brand New, aftermarket part)
(E-bay seller "mapdistributors" if you need one)

So while I had to wait a few days to fix it, all is well now. Just cannot get over the incredible cost they want for one dealer or locally.. I understand everyone has to make a buck, but that is way out of line IMO. What do you think?

I found the same thing. Ordered a new driver's master window switch from a taxi parts company on ebay for $45. Passenger side front is also bad, but I just stole the one out of the rear door for the time being. Have to order another new one of those soon.

Wow! That's one of the things I try to get away from those 'Stealership'. They just price things so unbelievable. That's why I try to learn to replace or fix stuff on my car myself.
