    I am sure they will. I may have them quote it per item too. And check with the 2 other local dealers

    Do you really have to take off the wipers and the cladding to get to the plugs? I watched the YouTube video and didn't want to have to take the top end apart to get to the plugs.

    The person who designed a head with the plugs facing backwards should have been told to rotate them 90 degrees forwards!

    ~$300 seems a bit much for a coolant drain and fill.

    Yup. The sand-pounder: maybe one more inch of clearance would have been enough. Cavalier engineering.
