Advice - Good Repair Shop/Dealer in SoCal?
First off, I want to thank everyone who helped in my last thread. Sure enough, it was as we suspected, dead battery:

Anyway, I recently had my Check Engine Light go on and soon after, the ABS light. The speedometer, odometer, and high beams stopped working also. Checked under the hood and discovered some wires were entirely chewed apart and now disconnected. I'm all but sure its the work of the rats that made my WRX their home while it was sitting extendedly in my driveway. Anyway, I need to have the wiring repaired and a few other small things like replacing a fog lamp and widnshield wiper so I'm looking for suggestions on where to go have all this work done in Los Angeles, CA.
I purchased my WRX up in NorCal at Albany Subaru which is where I used to have some maintenance done when I was too lazy to do it myself. As such, I'm not familiar with the dealers down in LA. I've heard good things about Irvine Subaru but its about 30 miles away. In fact, living in Walnut, CA, not may dealers are close by at all. Still, we all know dealers are often the pricier option for repairs so I'm open to independent shops too. Ideally, however, I'd like for all this stuff to be taken care of same day if possible and I imagine dealers might more likely carry the wiring in stock versus an independent shop. Still, I can see these repairs taking at least a few days.
Anyone have suggestions on where to go or who to call?
