local dealer wants $50 each, is this necessary? can original quality be purchased on line? thanks

That's pretty good I'd say. I wouldn't hesitate to take them up on that offer. Its a relatively easy task, but its a little annoying too. And you have to torque the bolts to a correct amount, which most people don't have a torque bar

Here is OEM equipment from parts.com $30 each and add shipping and handling and you will probably be close to $75 so the dealer price you have of $100 is reasonable IMO.

Oh I misread. I thought for labor... 100 is still good.

Then he would be crazy not to! I can almost bet alldata has that as a 3 hour job. 3 x $160(more or less depending on dealership)= $480

while we're on the subject, what does everybody recommend for replacement non drilled or grooved front rotors, just to replace stockers, nothing fancy needed, although I will be purchasing ceramic pads.

I don't use ceramic pads,their nice,last long,and no dust, but the heat buildup they cause can warp rotors prematurely ,metallic,soft,messy, stop better,that's what the maker recommends.
