Coil Over Install Time?

I want to know how long should a coil cover install take?

Not me doing it but at a shop.

When installing them myself, using basic hand tools, it took me an hour per corner (first time I'd done it on an rx8).

So at a guess, garage should be able to get it done in half the time say 2-3hours if they know what they're doing

They should charge you 1 hour per coilover

The long thing is going to be the set-up, not the install itself
Remember to go back there after a short break-in period to check up the heights and re adjust them if needed!
I payed 200€, 350$ for the install and the after break in check up\adjustments
