Vitek's prices were better, he'd offer more alternatives if you didn't want to fork out for OEM parts, but also warn you when that could be a mistake. He was also very supportive with helping on over the phone diagnosis for work I was doing myself, and provided parts at a fair price.

Just changed the cabin air filter in my CLS550. What a PITA that was. $150 is practically a bargain to not have to do those gymnastics. Unbelievable - taking off torx screws, popping of plastic trim, peeling back carpet...and all under the dash where there is no room to work. You have to be kidding me. Every other car I've done it's the easiest thing ever and usually accessed just through the glove box. If it's anything like mine, he may actually have thought he was doing you a favour hah.
