It's not that hard. Most dealers will charge you an arm and a leg. How many miles are you on?

The spark plug only cost about 50 bucks but the labor to do it will leave you sore for days. I'd do it myself because the dealerships are notorious for handing out big bills with no foreplay before and no lube during.

I am at 54K and I am just a little scared to do it myself cause I know how cramped of a space that is nor do I have a torque wrench. I guess I could borrow one but still it is jsut a little scary cause of location of the plugs.

Dealer is askign $177 for the entire thing. I don't want to pay that. Where can I get plugs? I would liek to jsut get the same kind that comes on the WRX. Anybody know the part number and where I can go to get them?

do a search for spark plugs and you should find a bit of info on them. also i think scoobymods has step by step instructions on how to replace them.
