Tail light broken, dealer asks 300$

Whatever you do, don't buy the cheap aftermarket tail lights...you'll only be wasting your money. Stick with OEM.

Here are some replace light options:

I would guess that the $300 price was not that far out-of-line considering parts are about $200. So, they added about $100 for labor. Most labor rates at the dealership exceed $200 per hour. Not cheap, but not completely outrages either, IMHO.
