I can remember my parents' old BMW from 1984. One glass in one of the
taillights broke, the glass were removable with some effort, but the
dealer only sold the whole light! Not only the whole glass, but the
whole, big lamp, which costed $400!!

BTW: Same with Audi, or can glass be removed from the rest and
replaced?
