$234 + shipping to your state on www.tirerack.com. Mine would be about $16, and if you do use ebay make sure you get the right part number.

shouldn't be no more than 100 bucks to install springs..i only paid 50. i suggest you shop around a little more or DIY. But unless your a baller go for it..unlike me i'd rather save a little extra cash.

At $50 I'd be concerned about the quality of work. That's less than an hour labor rate at most shops. Whoever did it must have been quick!

$50 for installing springs on a W208????

Most REPUTABLE shops in the bay area charge in the neighborhood of $150-250, depending if you purchased the springs from them.

I've had these springs installed a little over 3 years on my car with no problems so I guess quality of work is good . I know the guy who works there so I guess you can say he hooked it up. For other customers I think he was only charging 100 bucks and I guess that's still cheap? Seriously it's not that hard to swap out springs and it shouldn't even be that expensive...it's the MB tax
