buying from TRDSparks, can my local Toyota install it?

called my local toyota and they want 550 for the shocks/struts, 250 for the spring set, 220 for the sway bar and 450 for the sport muffler

Would my local dealer mind installing the items from TRDSparks? Sparks is a legit Toyota dealership.........

My local dealer will still be making money from the labor....i'm guessing 3 hours? (99 per hour here)

Surely they'd love to take your money. But I'm guessing much more than three hours at a Stealership.

well everytime i talked tomy dealership and asked them install my own parts, they said they couldnt becuase of certain liability issues, etc. maybe he meant only aftermarket parts, im not sure. if you bring it OEM parts or TRD stuff that is factory toyota made parts, then they might be able to do it, im not 100% sure. just givin u a lil bit of my experience there as i've been searching for people to help me install my stuff as well.

My Toyota dealer has never given me any trouble installing genuine TRD/Toyota parts that I bought on my own for cheaper instead of getting the parts through them.
