Cost for spark plug replacement on CTT?

From an independent shop, not the stealer.

I just paid $900 for oil change and spark plugs. Their software is down and they didn't even clear the codes.

Methinks this is a tad high for an independent.

Opinions?

Just got the bill from my wife...it was the 40K service (done at 38.5K since the vehicle is 4.5 years old).

I suppose $900 isn't too bad. However I have a lot of people competing for my business where I live and could probably have done a bit better.

What dealer asked you to change your plugs on your 2008 "s" at 10k?
