Default Estimate on Eiabch spring install.............RIPOFF!!!!

I bought a BRAND NEW Pro-Kit for my 95 Accord. I got a great deal on them ($194 shipped) I have called several places, and the average cost of the install would be around $200!!! To me that seems like a lot, please give me some clues on to how much it should cost.

You don't have the tools to do it yourself? I did mine and it took me about 2 hours to get it done and cleaned up. it is not that hard if you know what you are doing. I would never pay someone $200 to put springs on my car.

Wow. I only charge $100 to install springs and struts for people. $200 does seem high.

$200 is what I got quoted. I ended up doing it myself with some help from a friend...took us a few hours...pretty simple to do.
