8.7 hours is what we list (includes alignment). Our times are based on BMW times for OEM parts since thats what we have to be copacetic with when being in the dealerships (won't install our parts if we are quoting times less then what an OEM equivalent would). This dealership, in theory, according to the above has a $200 hourly rate.

Regardless, you can get it installed anywhere you choose if desired. The only caveat when installed at a non-dealer is if there is an issue with the install warranty would not cover that. That said - it's springs - about as straightforward of an install as you can get so the chances of a botched install are pretty slim.
