    Well, that's a bargain then I guess....So, buy 10 of them now and sell each for a grand later. That's a nice ROI....

    $100 for a brand new factory cam sensor is normal every day price. The viper tax as all of the owner snowflakes like to call parts prices, is mostly because said owners are too lazy to look around them.

    12 pack of Coors Light
    Wish you were local. I'd sell you the HF cats and Borla Cat Back for about half your budget just to help and get them out of my attic. Shipping is just to damn expensive these days though for big boxes...

    Thanks for the offer and I wish you were too. Although I have had pretty good luck keeping my costs down buying from the US using ShipIto dot com. Freight forwarding company. They have a warehouse in California and Oregon.

    I thought the gen2 cam sensors are no longer made and the few remaining are sold for a ridiculous premium?

    It's just a forum thing.

    Hm, just checked a couple of Mopar online dealers for part number 05245084, all saying "discontinued" part... !? Has this part been superceded by another part number?

    You aren't trying very hard here. Or maybe being in Germany limits your resources. But I have yet to see any part that can't be found for a fair price.

    Well, yes, the Internet is a new thing for us here in Germany, difficult to leverage this resource to its full potential... searching further I stumbled about that huge gen2 cam sensor thread on the other forum... So already 4 years ago that part was discontinued. I doubt that there are any NOS sensors left nowadays as some people back then already horded the remaining ones. You may find one used, but even these are going for a premium. From what I saw, list price was around 70$US new when they were still made. Used one for 185$US I consider a premium, based on list price back then. But of course, prices are proportional to demand vs supply.
