Called Racingbeat and they told me that the dealer list price is $7... gota love the stealorship. Racing beat didnt have any, so they directed me to Mazdatrix. The were able to ship one priority mail for cheaper than mazda, so we should still be on track for Saturday... FML.. lol
Yeah, the dealer markup on prices is ridiculous. Just like the ignition coils they want $65 a piece for, when I can get them at oreilys for $33 with a lifetime warranty, and its the same damn part. I dont get why they want to run off their customers by giving them the shaft every time you need something...

Of course.. it will be there regardless. It was there last year, but there was nothing really special about it. I have something else I'm hoping to surprise people with by deals gap, but it all depends on how much time i have to get it done...
