How much for new silicone vacuum lines? $350???

How much should I pay for all new silicone vacuum lines? I just bought it *2 days ago and I can see there are blue lines... the place I took it to says that underneath the car the lines aren't replaced and he'd want redo them all.... he said he'd charge me $350 for all new lines (and he also said he'd "check" to see why one of the turbos isn't kicking in). I am trying to pick up on the RX7s quick but for right now I am stuck trusting someone else. I don't see why he'd need to replace them all. Also there is a wierd clunking sound when i make a left turn (the sound is coming from the right wheel well) and someone told me a bushing might need to be replaced? I haven't any ideas and am wondering if you guys have any thoughts? Oh yeah, one last thing... my glovebox hangs slightly open (yet I can't open it by giggling the handle or pulling w/o breaking it), any suggestions on fixing it, should I get my lazy butt off here and unscrew the bottom or is this a common problem? Thank you so much for responding I appreciate it!

$350 is a decent price. Usually I hear of the vaccum job costing around $400.

hmm not sure off the top of my head on the lines but i could check the invoice i got for work done. Also my glovebox has the same problem where it just slightly hangs open and is loose and not secure(the frotn paneling seems like it could be pulled right off)

$350 is a good price if it's not something you want/can tackle yourself. Just keep in mind that solinoids can break which will add increments of $20 - 40 each
Where are you getting it done? R&R in Upland? That's where me & Batmobile got ours done...... they did pretty good work.
