Default where are you located? i'm in central jersey and have some extra, will sell to you for $6/ea

that's how much they cost me... i'm not selling them for profit. i ask if you're in the area only cuz if i ship it to you, it'd probably be just about the same price to buy it from ecstuning. but if you're local to me, you can save on shipping and have it right away.

Default yeah it's OEM, got them from ecs... sure, let me know when you need one.

..or i can drop it off to you whenever. i bought the 10-pack from ECS last month and only used one so far. don't go to princeton audi, they charged me $10.xx for one, when i really had to change my oil and kept forgetting to order them from ECS. the dealer is such a rip.
