Thought while there I’d ask what one would be worth. New they are about $120 to $180 on eBay, etc, so allowing for dealership OEM ripoff I was expecting $250 or thereabouts.

Nearly collapsed when informed that NEW from Toyota; $570! And that’s without fitting if I wanted them to do it.

Informed the stunning spare parts girl with sensational legs and a pretty short skirt, NOT to bother ordering one in for me.

I’ll stick with the OEM one..

No wonder I got a CEL in my car. When you have model quality girls working in spare parts and presumably walking around workshops, techs are gong to miss things like pushing a wire in firmly!
thats a rip off and a half.. US wise you could get one for 195 at dealers... or from FT86 for 150 ish.. thats USD though
