I am getting quotes all over the place. My MB dealer who is also a Renntech dealer quoted me 9 hours labor ($1600) BEFORE an alignment. Another shop quoted me 8 hours labor ($1200) including alignment. Both seem high. What is everyone else paying?

Looks like you have to dismantle the inside of the trunk to get to the springs from the top.
As soon as I heard that, I quickly thought to myself it is not worth lowering the car and I will live with the OEM height even after I receive my new wheels. I was quoted about 6 hours from a local shop

its a long process no doubt--- Weistec did mine back in 2015 and my car was their first; it took all day but I think once a shop does it a few times they can master the process. My guess is 5 to 6 hours is a fair charge which would include shop profit. 8 or 9 hours is just too much.
