    The s/c comes with new plugs to install at the same time. If the s/c is already installed to change the drivers side plugs it has to be removed. Its not hard at all to remove.

    O thanks eh I got quoted 1100 for install from Toyota is that about right? A friend of mine got it for 900 for his 2012 they told me the 2012 is easier and has less parts to install than the 2007

    That's about right for 10-12 hours of labor depending on how experienced the tech is.

    No idea on the spark plugs. I'm dreading that day but it won't be for a while.

    That probably sounds right. Some get it done for less just depends on the dealer. I installed mine myself though (took about 5 hrs for me)and just drove it to the dealer for the reflash for $50. I was the first person on the island to get the s/c reflash done anyway. Had it installed a few weeks after it was released back in 07 after the release after the sema show.
