Brake installation cost
Brake installation cost
Any one have any idea how much it would cost to get a whole set of rotors/pads and ss lines installed? Should i get it done at a dealer or an independent store?
Im not that good with cars but i wanna save some money so how hard would it be to do that by myself? Should i even attempt it, cuz since its is the brakes, and i dont wanna mess anything up and do it wrong.

It's an easy job. Get a shop manual and go through the steps carefully. A few bolts, swap all the parts and bleed the system. It's pretty straight forward.
If your going to have somebody do the work for you, I'd guess 1-1/2 hours of labor @ $50/hr.

You are probably looking at $300+ for new rotors, pads, and ss lines. Depending on where you live, price might be higher or lower.
It's a pretty easy job. Just buy the parts and do it at home.

well if i decided to do it myself, would i need any tools to change the brake fluid. Also, would i need jacks stands or could i just use a jack, and do it one wheel at a time? Id prefer not to spend $150+ on something thats not too hard to do. Ive never done this, but im pretty mechanically inclined.
Aveage is price I say would be 100 for hole install.
I think you can by yourself, it pretty easy job. one jack would do, just be carefull. you only need a 2ft tube to connect the Bleed valve to a bottle.( for brake fluid change)
