Ahh my bad I've been there enough times the past three weeks you'd think I knew where it was. But yeah they did my springs and fed me pizza.

You could always get a spring compressor and do it yourself.

Hell, I'd do it for $140! And contrary to popular belief, you don't need a spring compressor.

You can go to Kevin for this. I don't know what he'll charge, but you can rest assure that having a former subaru mechanic doing the install will ensure that the job gets done correctly.

Does Auto HQ really exist? This phone number is disconnected. I haven't had the heart to drive by and see if there's anything there.

Still looking for a decent shop _on the Peninsula_
