I called the dealer for an estimate for ballast (inverter) installation and they quoted me 180 for the right side? It sounds kinda pricey. I also asked for the price to resurface my rotors and they told me it was gonna be 280?
Funny thing is, I asked if warped rotors were a common problem on our cars and the service representative was making up some bs about driving conditions....

 

yeah those prices sound a lil crazy
Discount Auto resurface's rotors for $20 or so

 

You might as well buy new rotors for that price.

 

Do you already have the inverter or are you buying it from them too? They told me this morning (see thread https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=172564 ) that the front bumper cover had to be removed. Seems pretty involved to me but then again, I've never taken my bumper off. They quoted me around $500 for the inverter, bulb and installation before Acura said they'd cover it.

 

taking the bumper off takes about 10 minutes if you don't know what your doing i can do it in about 3-5 minues.

 

Is it that hard to replace the inverter? I was thinking about ordering them online and have them installed at the dealer (or do it myself if its not too hard).
Also i was gonna order from http://www.acuraautomotiveparts.org/ and it says qty required is 2? Does that mean I get 2 inverters for 330?
