On that topic of N/A rocker covers, you'd think there'd be heaps of them in wrecking yards... but I'm also not aware of one that's an aftermarket version other than nizzy's and I don't even know if they sell them anymore, let alone if they're a reasonable price.

In other news, MCUs are becoming so hard to find that the companies stocking them are charging beyond insane prices for them.

 

Take this one for example, an MCU used in a product we developed many, many years ago. MCU released in 2009. Its old. But still in production. 

We used to pay ~$12AUD on a bad day for it.

 

Copied directly (can't copy a table, changed format) from a quote from one of the only suppliers that have them in stock. Its taken us all week just to find 2 suppliers with genuine, in stock parts.

 

Order QTY 116

Unit price $251USD

 

 

UNNIT PRICE!??!?!?

 

that's nearly $30kUSD for 116 chips. WTF
