My Eibach springs

I just got EIbach sway bars and since I have to reorder my car, I am now thinking about getting new springs. I'm kinda worried about the installation cost though. How long does it take to install springs? Should I go for Eibach or H&R?

I am not for sure about MB, but springs are fairly easy to install if you have a spring compressor. It is just too much work trying to push them down by hand

For the installation, I got a quote of $100CDN. Not by the dealership, but from an independant shop. I'd like to know the price of the dealer installing it as well, if they do it at all.

I doubt any Canadian dealerships will change aftermarket springs for you. Unless you know them very well and someone is willing to risk their job and do it for you after hours.

I think to change a set of springs will cost about an hour of labor, but I wouldnt be surprised if they charge you 2 hours for it.

I think you should go for neither H&R nor Eibach. H&R is too rough, Eibach is not enough. I would suggest Brabus or Renntech, they are just right!
