Default Looking at having a McCleod RXT installed, recommendations for Maryland shops???

Can anyone help me find a good reasonably priced shop here in Maryland to install a new clutch for me? And what should I expect to pay for the install?

I had a clutch installed on my C5 Coupe back in the day and the shop did a horrible job. I don't think they had ever done a C5, well I ended up having to have it redone and I don't recall the cost.

I have a mechanic friend local who I have been messaging on Facebook, and he said his shop would charge me around $1000 for the install.

TIA for the help!

I had some work done there on my C5 and for the work I had done, the price was reasonable and they take care of your car. Never had clutch work done there but they do clutch work.

I went though the same process of finding a shop in the DMV area for my C5. Prices ranged from $1,100 to $2,300 for labor alone.

I went for the least expensive option and would not recommend that shop, find somewhere in the middle that has experience and is willing to take their time.

Man, that sure seems expensive!! Is that what everyone is paying?
