      Could be worse, we could be in e30 territory.

      I work for a dealership and quoted a shop nearly $500 for the front windshield seal. That was wholesale price with no tax too.

      With more and more things going NLA, only a few years before we’re not far off.

        $200 for an OEM PS hose. That is insane.
        The tariffs can't add that much to the cost of an OEM hose.
        150€ here in Germany. So around 175 dollars. Tarifs only make up approx 25€

        also you should check part quantity in bmw stock. Once they hit low stock like 10 or less prices drastically increase

          I've avoided buying URO parts, but for this PS hose, it might be worth a shot.
          Did you actually read the description?

            Yes, apparently that power steering hose is called an "intake manifold":

              Try finding anything for E34 M5, or an E31. And when you do - cry. Prices are insane.
              Even E39 parts are exorbitant nowadays.

                Following up on this. Just received the part and actually received the Genuine BMW hose. The site still has the same price so might be worth purchasing for those of you who need/will need this.
