Replying to: fargond (Jun 10, 2008 5:46 am) I'm going to order the side moldings I saw on eBay next week. My husband can install them. I just can't even think about that first ding or dent happening so soon. The Elantra metal doesn't seem any less sound than on my Honda Pilot. My wonderful husband dinged my Pilot within the first two weeks with a ladder he was using to wash the top. I still love him for washing my car for me, but I've been looking at that small ding on my driver side door for more than 4 years now.  Still looking for anyone with experience adding side moldings to an '07 or '08. I'd like to read your story!

Hi! Anyone know what a Hyundai dealer charges for the manufacturer mud guards/flaps and installation? I know they are $85 msrp per the website- not sure if they would charge anything to install them. I just don't feel like doing this on my own. Just wondering. Thanks. Eric

Replying to: ez888 (Jun 16, 2008 10:53 am) There are 2 Hyundai parts web sites where you can buy the OEM front pair and rear pair for $14-$15 per pair, plus $8-$9 shipping. Meaning about $38 total including shipping. Installation is really easy, and CAN be done by someone with no car knowledge but has at least assembled put-together-furniture  . I did them on my 05 Tucson and will be ordering them for my 08 Elantra SE shortly from one of these sites. The front is very easy, just twist the wheels to gain access and use a stubby philips screwdriver. The rear ones are a bit tougher as the clearance to the wheel is tight. However if you get a thumb ratchet screw driver you can easily do it without needing to remove the wheel. It's a 30 minute install assuming you have a small philips screwdriver. It really is easy.

Replying to: gomst1 (Jun 18, 2008 7:41 pm) It looks easy enough and I'm happy to hear the color match was excellent. I haven't had a chance to order my moldings yet, but I will soon. |

Replying to: ez888 (Jun 17, 2008 7:02 am) These 2 are the cheapest "Regular" online stores. i.e. those with a friendly web site, some pictures (though may not be entirely accurate), etc.. http://hyundaipartspeople.com -- $15.00 + $8.95 shipping total ($38.95) http://hyundai.dealerfit.com -- $14.04 + $7.95 shipping total ($36.03) These links lead you to a normal store with similar prices to the above, BUT there are links to go directly to a OEM parts catalog. If you order by the exact part number, you save. You need to be 100% sure of the part number, and they make you furnish your VIN to verify to prevent you from buying and then returning wrong parts. Both link you to the same parts database/probable drop-ship location, just different 'store front'. http://hyundai.partsdirect.com -- $12.25 + $9.95+ shipping total ($34.45 though may be higher--this was a baseline and they said it could be adjusted AFTER ordering) http://hyundai-parts.com -- $12.50 + $6.50 shipping total ($31.50 !) Obviously, I ordered from the last one. I also ordered the elusive cargo net for $17.50 with no extra shipping (most don't have the 07/08 proper net, only the older model ones or none in stock). As far as I could tell through numerous web site verifications, here are the correct Hyundai OEM part numbers for the Elantra: Cargo net: U8170-2H000 (08 specific -- 07 seemed to vary from a couple diff # but theoretically shouldn't since it should have the same chassis/post mounts?) Front Pair Mud Guards: 08460-2H100 (07 or 08) Rear Pair Mud Guards: 08460-2H500 (07 or 08) |
