Price of spring install in Bay Area?
I was just wondering how much I should expect to spend to have my new Eibach springs installed. I'm sure it all depends on where I take the car, but is it something that your average wheel/tire shop can do easily and inexpensively? I want to make sure it gets done right, but don't wanna get ripped off just because it's a benz. Also, if anyone can recommend a shop in the San Jose/South Bay Area, I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Really depends on where you go. Socal is a lot cheaper than Norcal.
Ping me... I may be of some assistance.

Sorry this might be off topic here but, Does Lowering your C230K VOID Warranty?? My dealer told me it might. Is this True? Thanks.

The MB dealer here in Tucson told me they would charge me about $250 for the spring/shock install and then would need to do a re-alignment for $400...so, total of $650. This was about a year ago...when I was checking into pricing. Havent done anything yet.

The W203 has an annoying rear spring setup, where you have to gain access to the strut tops through the trunk. I could see a shop charging up to $350 and being reasonable. I fyou can get $150 you are extremely lucky.
You shouldnt pay more than $60 for a good hunter alignment.
