Default dimmer switch new $500?

I have a Honda civic eg hatchback from a 1994 was wondering if a dimmer switch would cost 500 dollar brand new cause I took my car to pepboys for checkup on it and that's what they gave me the estimate for after they check my car for the problem with no lights coming through the cluster panel.

would you pay 500 for a dimmer switch? hopefully you can find a junkyard and get it for 95% cheaper.

If your going to pay $500 for one I'm sure I have one for about $400.

Take a look on ebay you can find them a lot cheaper if you don't have a junkyard near by.

I had the same issue. Just run a jumper wire in the dimmer switch to bypass it and it will come on. Or go to a junkyard like pull a part.
