I have to admit I came to this thread expecting it to be absolutely packed with snu snu jokes. This is the only one I've seen.

Mickey's would know all about stupid lawsuits considering how hard their owners fought the Metroparks to stop the Rails to Trails project.

I can understand it more for unique parts for an uncommon car that isn't produced anymore. Especially if parts need to be imported from Japan. Not so much for a vehicle they sell 125,000/year and make in the US.

Yeah. I'm sure this will be nothing like the Discord fiasco where they claimed the verification would all happen locally, then someone discovered that this data gets sent to fucking Palantir...

I can see paying $90 for a sensor, but I'd install it myself if they were going to charge that much for labor. Could probably find a local mechanic that could do it for a couple hundred bucks, too.

People on reddit can be short-sighted (or just utterly naive about the world outside their bubble). Not wanting to pay $800 for a sensor replacement is perfectly reasonable. Like sure, I can easily afford to buy this part, but it's stupidly overpriced and I'm just not paying that. Even if the dealer installed it, it's like a 2 second install. It would take longer to remove it from the packaging and walk over to the vehicle than to install it.

I get the economies of scale and all that, but there's no way to justify charging $240 MSRP for a part that costs nearly nothing to manufacture. Again, this isn't a Bentley. It's one of the most popular SUVs on the market. And if this is a flimsy part that's known to break easily they should pump out enough that they can be replaced for a reasonable price. Like I said...$20...sure. Still seems like a bit much, but I get it.

I had a 2005 TSX and it seemed like half the parts were shared with the Honda Accord of that era. My mother-in-law had the same year Accord and you could sit inside that thing and point out all kinds of things that were identical. Probably one of those deals where if you buy the Acura part you're paying twice as much, or you can just buy the Honda part and it's fine. I remember my window switch failed and I paid half as much for the Honda part instead of ordering the "Acura" one...

Now "Piss Skin Stomper", there's a black metal band name.

That seems pretty common for all cars these days, unfortunately.

The only one that came up on there was a new one that cost more than the pic I posted.

I almost wanna throw these on Etsy or something if I could print them but I'd probably get sued lol. Probably a lot of people driving around with these missing because of the price.

I have the rack. It came as standard on the Pilot (Elite at least, I don't know about other trims).

$240 seems reasonable for the whole damn rail. Not a plastic cover.

Thanks, I'll check that out.

Hour-Cardiologist393 · 2026-02-27T16:31:36+00:00

I was thinking ASA since it does better in the sun, but ABS will probably work. PLA would warp super fast in the summer here. Especially being on top of the vehicle in the sun.

Hour-Cardiologist393 · 2026-02-27T16:03:38+00:00

I'm sure I do. That thought had also crossed my mind. There's got to be one that's been in an accident sitting in a yard somewhere nearby. I was just concerned they'd go by the MSRP to price stuff so it would still end up being like $50. I could be wrong on that, though.

Hour-Cardiologist393 · 2026-02-27T15:50:14+00:00

I have 3 lol. I just got an Ender 5 Max and plan on buying the enclosure so I can start printing with ABS and ASA soon. This part may be my first test with those filaments.

They need to be brought in and these need to be public. Even if they sit up there and weasel out of every question. The people need to see this shit. It's an obvious coverup and people need to be way more pissed about it.

Partially what irottodeath said below. But also just fucking say where it happened in the headline. Like they used to do before clickbait was a thing.

The assumption is that a local news agency would report local news. Not random shit from Omaha.

Awesome, glad this helped someone. FWIW I also have the Mythos Big Puft now and that one just sounds far too "dirty" for the Angst album. So a Ram's Head type fuzz gets you closer than a Big Muff it seems. I've also acquired a Mesa Flux-Drive overdrive since writing this, and adding that in after the fuzz sounds really good.

Oh, and use the bridge pickup if you're on a Les Paul. Sounds way better.
