I went to the Acura dealer yesterday (I live in Ottawa Canada), the parts guy looked up the part on his computer in front of me, and I was able to see the dealers cost and retail price. The dealer cost is $54, and they're selling it for $90 canadian.

That is 40% markup

The guy was pretty embarrassed that I saw their cost on his screen.
