8 hrs might be standard dealer book time on that job...it's really only a 1-2 hour job for a tech who has done it before and works at it w/o a break, 2-3 if you never did it before...something like 17 connectors is all there is. Lay the new one on top or next to the old one and un-plug/plug 1 connector at a time. Easy.

But yes, 8 hrs is crazy ! Especailly at $100+ an hour at a MB dealer. But hey, they have all that overhead to cover right?
