Loudoun County Va Shop for Plugs

I’m in Purcellville Virginia. I need new plugs on my 2016 SS. I’ve gotten three estimates from shops to just do the plugs at $860, $640 and $550. All of those seem insane for plugs. This is not a fourth GEN where the number eight plug takes a month. In all honesty, with how much time I’ve had to put into these calls I could’ve just done it myself at this point, but I’ve got a very pregnant wife and little kids at home so I’d rather just be able to drop it off and have someone do it - but not at these prices.

Any recommended shops in Western Loudoun County?

It's seriously a 30 minute job.. Get your family to bed and do it yourself late at night.

You’re probably right. I was scarred (literally) by my 2000 Z28 getting to cyl8, but this looks way more straight forward.

OMG yes it took me hours to change the plugs on my 2000 SS lol, and many different extensions.

I'm so glad you steered me away from a shop. Literally had my 8 year old "help" was done in under an hour. $69 for plugs.
