I replaced about 2/3 of mine at the dealer, they actually stocked a
handful of them, I guess that means they are in later cars?

Although they were about $2 each, I figured it was money well spent, and
low aggravation even if it was $20-30 or so.

Imagine the labor charge if you didn't do it yourself...
