2k5 is much different than $240...

But I remember a similar price on my Jetta, so not all that bad. I'm sure beethead could do some macguyver shit in his driveway and fix it for $50 though, with the way he got his old jetta going...

bearing is about $50, maybe 2 hrs to pull it down and press it in, sounds about right

I think he meant 2005 VW beetle... not that it'll cost 2k5
