Best of all:

The prices on our website are US suggested retail pricing. Prices may vary by dealer, especially internationally where additional transit fees, customs fees, etc. may be involved. Additional charges may apply to housings returned for an update if there are other non-warranty repairs required or recommended.

Two pricing options are available for the port lock upgrade:
$150 US Suggested retail for upgrade
$200 US Suggested retail for upgrade plus replacement of all seals

Returning an item through an international dealer or distributor is usually cheaper than the freight and duties charges that are involved with sending it on your own. However it may result in longer wait times as the return of repair items are coordinated with shipments of outgoing orders.

Also we do not proceed with the repairs if there is a delay in receiving approval of the repair charges. Please confirm with your dealer that you approve the repair estimate.

Hopefully this helps to answer your questions.

Regards,
