Yes they are really expensive... I went to the dealer because both of mine went out and they wanted like 60-70 dollars for the whole shock and everything. Instead i bought a whole window and struts off a fellow h-tech memeber for 50 bucks.

Honda parts from the dealer and rarely (for me) cheap. Except my friend works and he hooks it up...

Yeah the dealer seems expensive. Our wholesale isn't close to what it is with other makes dealers we deal with.
