Holy Maccaroni!!!
 
I bought mine (for my ur-quattro - Z 071 462) in Germany, at Autohaus Kaufmann 
in Hofheim/Ts., in October 1993.  They cost DM36.54 at the time.
 
Correcting for mean European inflation over the intervening 3 1/2 years, it 
would be DM39.94 today.  With the $1:DM1.6698 (interbank close) that makes:
 
                  23 bucks and 92 cents!! 

Check out one of the European parts suppliers.
