[urq] One part went from $1.75 to 13.87 (ball stud for trunk struts) 14 years later.

I got a sale on some trunk struts from TPC 12 months ago - so I bought 3 (2 for urq 1 for cgt) - but they didn't come with the ball attachments at the end.  I can't figure out how to get the ball joints out of the old struts.
   
  I was going thought the CGTs service history - putting it in a spreadsheet - and I came across the part# for what I think is these -  191 827 439  BALL STUD  $1.75 on 2/29/1992.    So I went to my audi dealer and the price came up as $13.87.   I'm keeping that 2x4 that i use to keep the trunk open.
