The current price from Saab for the 5spd shift cover is $65.28 so $58 is cheap. Sure the variable cost of one unit is probably very little, but there are a lot of fixed costs, transport and inventory/overhead costs those little plastic bits need to pay for. SPNA/Orio can only be profitable if people purchase these items, something a lot more owners tend to decline as the vehicles decline in market value.
