    Way high, no matter where you live. Really encourage you to consider doing it yourself. There’s so little involved in terms of tools. If you don’t already have a socket set you should own one anyway. Beyond that, all you really need is a gap check tool, a long extension as someone mentioned, and a magnetic spark plug socket. I personally use a torque wrench but lots of people don’t need or use one and do just fine. You can also get a perfectly decent torque wrench fairly cheaply if you want to use one.

    Just finished in a hair over 2 hours.
    Get a 24 in extension if you don’t already have.
    It’s not that difficult.

    Plugs from the dealer are $14; that's a lot of freakin' labor charge.
