7 day shipping to Spain was under $40 for 3 pieces. I can't imagine it'd be much more for US destinations.

They're by far the best OEM option that I've come across :)

Yeah, the ones holding the seat in. I'd have to go to a specialist metalworker to get something similar to JB weld here. Was hoping it'd be a few hours' work.
