| Engine Cover (echo)? Ok, I was looking thru my parts book. And the 00-03 Echo uses the same engine cover as the xB but 04-05 has a different one. Same valve covers, so they have to mount the same. Anyone ever see the 04-05 Echo engine cover? Echo engine cover 00-03 costs $35 and the 04-05 costs $98.
04-05 cover might look cool and would give a different look, I just don't know what it looks like, and it's $60 bucks more than ours. I can't find a pic anywhere, only ones with our cover. |

| I wonder if it's a visable difference or something different, like more heat shielding on the back side or something. |

| $35 for our engine cover? Heck that's cheaper that what one of
the local dealers charges for the cabin air filter! ($45) |

| Maybe that $45 includes the labor charge for installing it? After all, the labor required to install a cabin air filter is not inconsiderable!  |

Well,while they were checking on my oil leak I asked the parts guy to order me one....$129 bucks!  So either my dealer is a huge crook or someone has been getting a great deal on these and needs to send me the link  |
