I have to agreed that Linda really got prices that no one else can beat. I
just got pads and rotors from her for my 92' 100 V6, I paid $252 
including shipping. I had my mechanic installed for me, he wouldn't 
believe how much I paid for the front and rear rotors. It cost me a total 
of $402 tax included for parts and labor to replace both front and rear 
pads and rotors which is cheaper than what the dealer quoted me just for 
the front brakes($175 for rotors, $175 for pads and $96 for labor i.e 
about $500 after tax). I also got the parts on time as they have 
promised. The only thing I dislike about them is the length of time that 
they put on hold for :P
