How much am I looking at spending, including the labor to install?

Also if anyone has any recommendations in the St Tammany area that'd be great.

Honestly, you can do it yourself for much less. Not that hard. Just watch a youtube video a couple of times.

Rotors are very easy to replace yourself.






OT, is doing your own minor vehicle repair trashy?

I understand this.. Replaced my brakes awhile back on another vehicle. Really just don't have the time and am willing to drop it off to be done.

just not sure of the total cost in doing so.

No one is going to change rotors and pads for 100. Maybe per wheel.....

Pumping your own gas is trashy, so what do you think?

All round? Front only? Rear only? I just replaced my front rotors and pads on my '09 Tacoma. Cost me $230 in OEM parts. I would expect if I had paid a mechanic it would have been @$350 for parts and labor.
