Default IAT sensor

Hey guys, I am getting really awful fuel economy. I think one of the reasons is because I need to replace my Intake Air Temp sensor, since it's been broken off since I bought the car. How much should a replacement Intake Air Temp sensor run me and where can I find a good deal on one? I thought I had asked at the Acura dealership by me one time and it was really expensive...Thanks for any info.

Sensors from the dealership are very expensive. I had to replace my knock sensor after I cracked it in half: $180.

Places to look for one:
-Junkyard
-Ebay
-http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org/
-Sellers on this and other Acura forums

If all else fails, you may get raped in the butt like I did by the dealer.

I am assuming you said "Jesus Christ!" because you were in some way annoyed by my question. I'm sorry if I'd like to explore all of my options so I can save a few bucks. I thought "well maybe someone has a suggestion for a site that I've never heard of that has good prices on parts"...

I've got one in the spare parts box somewhere that I can sell you. PM me here or on H-T.
