Dealership trip
 
So i am heading to the dealership tommorow to get my oil changed. I was wondering if dealerships are capable and willing to install berk hfc's. If they are and someone has had them install their hfc's, how much did you pay?

I'm not sure if they'd do that for you... I mean, sure they could, but if you take it in for warranty work, and they determine that they are the source of a problem, they can deny the work and possibly void the warranty. But then again, I'm not entirely sure, you might want to just ask while you're there? Figure, you'll be paying labor which is about what? $80 an hour? they'll stretch it into at least a four or five hour job probably...

Find a reputable shop nearby instead of the dealer, imo. I was quoted as little as $100 and as much as $160 for the install, with the majority of shops right at $135-140. Removing those top bolts towards the front of the car are VERY tricky and a pain to get to. 90% of the folks I've seen talk about the install (including my installer) had one of the bolts break on them.

Actually a guy on the forums had his hfc installed by the dealer.

+1 for reputable shop

The dealer will be more expensive and potentially give you warranty issues down the road.
