I ditto mokton and assasin... as for your location, I have NO IDEA where ANY of those cities are lol sorry. But you can DIY. It will be much cheaper and you'll gain a huge amount of experience by doing it.

I charge 250 to do it plus the hose costs. It is an easy job for me. I can do them in about 3 hours start to finish and contrary to what Mr assain says the solenoids/actuaters don't ALWAYS break. Someone needs to learn to be carefull

450 is alot but if you don't feel like trying it yourself then it may be worthwhile.At least you can have someone to blame other than yourself.

If you do it yourself, pull the entire rats nest including the fuel lines out of the car in one step. I laugh at everyone who tries to take those little phillups screws out.That is the WORST way to do it.
