I always quote jobs with my Indy and the dealer, I know my Indy very well and don't have to worry about him using subpar parts. Some times I order parts from the dealership keys >.<, gas cap, coolent stuff like that.

Either do it myself or take it to an indie. Here in the Phoenix area there are a number of good indies with reasonable labor rates and they all know what they are doing. We have two dealers, one is close to my house that I use sometime for parts as they are competitive (10% to 20% below retail), will make the extra effort to find what you are looking for (grey center console delete kit was a little hard to find) and I avoid shipping costs.
