Prices for "bomb"

["Steinbrueck, GL" <steinbru@VNET.IBM.COM>]

Well, I found part of this.  The current p/n for the bomb for my 5k's
(can you confirm for the 200's) is   857 612 061C and locally is about $260.
The last reference I had for bmw was 857 612 085A, and I "think" it was less
than a hundred, maybe $80 or so.  I cannot confirm how or if it is usable on
our cars, as it is special order part (I have to buy it before I can see it).

My "notes" were on a drive that crashed, so if any of you have more
information, post it here.  It could be "forever" before I get my files
back (groan).  I tell thee three times: backup backup backup....

Do you recall, (ballpark) what kind of price the BMW bomb costs? I also
have a 200 and I am led to believe that makes a difference in using the
BMW bomb.
