Yeah I just bought mine for $230 shipped US dollars. The replicas are poorly constructed and don't come with relays or a switch even. There's a reason why they're so cheap.

Gearbox, so 230 USD roughly translates to roughly 800 CAD
It would be funny to walk into a dealership and just ask them how much they went for.

I was actually thinking of getting OEM fog lights as well.

That's $272 canadian. I remember when the dealer wanted $500 for just the lights. Then install $300 for $800 just to have fog lights!
