So fasteners for my side scoops seem to have gone missing. I went to LotusGarage.com and looked up the little washer that is recessed for the cap head screw (it's an escutcheon, fyi) and this is what I find:

#13 Escutcheon, screw to panel, A340B0123F:

$225!!!!

Is that a typo?

I am just thinking that I'd get the ones that are used on the front access panels:

#6, B340B0123F: https://www.lotusgarage.com/shop/index.php?l=product_list&c=46

Those are $5.59. Still expensive but a fraction of the other ones.

Their part numbers differ by one letter.

What the hell is going on with this?

wow. I thought the thread, based on price, would be about a used Maytag. And I was going to tell you to list it in "other vehicles".

 

[Butters]

That's exactly what I said.

Has to be a misprint.

Have you tried Ace Hardware?

Try Fastenal..............Even in BF Enterprise AL we have one here. Not a lot in stock but they can order anything.

$225 for a washer? Our washing machine was way more than that!

Sounds like ordering from the UK's cheaper even with shipping. It might also be worth just calling/emailing LotusGarage to see if it's an error, but mylotusgarage.com shows the same list price (though the asking price is discounted to a mere $132 for one tiny washer)

Yup, I figured that out last night after taking some time to actually sit down and do some proper digging. Thanks!

I have all my washers machined out of billet titanium.
