Working for a supplier and parts that are sold for 25 Dollar to the OEM were priced over 600 to me in the workshop. Sure, not the workshop that added up so much, but shows how uncontrolled prices are. Repaired it myself for 3..

bruh I took my car to get a couple cluster panel bulb sockets installed because previous owner removed 2 of those sockets, installation was absolutely nothing out of this world, all you needed to do was unscrew 2 screws to take out the bezel, and 3 screws to remove the cluster panel, I ended up paying almost 300 dollars because they replaced the bulbs and didn't find the sockets, this apparently took 8 hours for them to do somehow and fucked up my bezel

There is also the legal issue. If the part fails and causes any other damage or injury, the shop is liable. Dont do this , even for freinds. Their insurance company wont be freindly when they sue your ass

Tried charging my girlfriend £980 for a £160 catalytic converter. Don’t say “little markup”
