Sway Install in the bay area

Hey, does anyone know a place in the bay area, CA that will not charge a freakin kidney to install CT sways on an 02 CLS? I asked around, and everyone is charging $200. Any suggestions?

CT Sways-------------$ 297--------$ 180--------------$ 477

Retail for the sways is $329 so I didn't do too bad

Cheaper ... yeah ... do it yourself. Even if you have to buy the tools, you'll save over $100. This install is one of the easier tasks of working on a car. Really, it's not that hard. Find a friend with some car knowledge and the two of you will have the job knocked out in less than 90 minutes ... tops.

Go for it ... save the money ...

I agree - it was my first mod, and it was totally easy to do. I just did it with a buddy in a parking lot, no big deal.

For less than the price that installation would have been, I now own a jack, jack stands, and a torque wrench.
