$250 parts (*2 [low dealer markup]) = $500 parts

let's say 2 hours for install ($100/hr [low]) = $200 labor

plus oil = ~$50.

still 750$ parts and labor.

it's like cutting your own hair. yeah it's free and the $20 clippers will last a long time, but it still costs $20 each time you pay someone else to do it.
