Mud Guards at the dealership... WTF??
ok first of all, sorry for killing the cow 2 or 3 times about the mud guards... but this may also help other people...I called the dealership and asked how much it would cost me to get the OEM mud guards installed, they quoted: " Oh about $300 plus tax"
Ok, so the mud guards cost $119 and the labor cost over $180?
wow, I am so installing them myself...
*********************
Has anybody bought online from either:
Mitsubishiparts.net (mud guards $101.54)
and
Mitsubishipartspeople.com (mud guards $85.54)
If yes, how was your experience with them , thanks

Yes do it yourself, if you are able to handle a screwdriver that is
.... takes about 30-45 min. The instructions that come with the kit say to remove the rear wheels (which is'nt needed). Maybe thats why the dealer wants to charge for 2hrs of labor...
