Rear Sway Bar/ Short Shifter installation in Los Angeles area?

I'm interested in installing the Progress 24mm rear sway bar and the comptech short shifter on my 2005 6MT. I'm not a big DIYer and would like to get them installe.

Do any of you know of a reliable/knowledgeable guy in Socal to install these, who doesn't charge me an arm and a leg? Thanks a lot!

West LA you are right near me. Mike (aznbo187) could probably do it, he knows his stuff. Do you have the parts already?

In all honesty you CAN do the RSB.. It will prob take you 15min and a simple set of sockets.. Its just two brackets, swap bar.. whaaa laaaa...

As for SS it is a tad bit more involved but write up is here..

But if you still wanna get it done, just call around any honda/import performance shops.. They usually charge per hour ($60-80) and for those two jobs expect to pay for 1.5-2Hrs..

I have the sway bar. I decided to go with HeelToe as his installation charges seemed pretty reasonable. Thanks!

The Comptech SS was my first mod, I did not have a clue what I was doing but the DIY on the garage was pretty helpful. It took me a while because I did it at night and was comparing my work with the pics.

Don't pay more than $20 for sway bar install imo.
