Cost to replace rear calipers?
Does any one know how much I can expect to pay for labor at the Mazda dealerships? Do you think a professional mechanic can do the job for 2 hours total?
I have the new calipers and brake pads and just need need the 2 new rear calipers and brake pads installed.
I tried doing it myself but the brake hose is so well stuck that I will strip the flare nut (I am using a flare nut wrench). Also, the brake cable hosing is like welded to the caliper. There is no way I can remove it no matter how much PB blaster I spray. I am raising the white flag on this one job and plan to go the dealership.
Thanks a lot for you feedback.

If you are in the Toronto area I (and many others) would recommend going to Jimmy at Street Performance.
