I'm a lazy bastard and I didn't feel like changing the bulbs in the intrument cluster. Mind you it only 2 screws and 3 plugs. So I go to the dealer and see what they're quote would be to do it. I figure at most they'll charge an hour labor since it really is a simple ass job and I THOUGHT it was only $50/hr.
So I go, the guy takes 15-20 mins to get me a quote then advises me it was 3 hours worth of labor at $89 because it's electrical plus $2 a bulb. I just started laughing in his face, he gave me an odd look for the first couple of seconds then proceeded back to his desk kinda shameful. I was like wtf, I took it out yesterday and it took me 5 mins because I had to figure out how to get the plastic cover above the column off (i didnt want to break it).
So they quoted me around $280 + 9% tax to change the instrument cluster bulbs...lol I think I'll do it myself.
