At least $50 i think...i've seen where guys pull the carpet back and cut a small access hole by the gas pedal to get to it as well....make sure and check the wiring/connector first and remember the paper spacer.

Just came back from the auto parts store and picked up 5 qts of 20W50 Castrol syntec, Fram oil and air Filter, and a qt of slick 50. Will this oil be too thick in the winter you think?
