I'm not familiar with the value of the AUD or conversion rates or anything, but a difference of $400 sounds pretty significant. Will your dealer really give you that much of a discount on labor if you source the parts through them? Maybe ask them for a two seperate quotes (labor vs. parts + labor)?
