$300 for the fowards (10% off list), $200 for the install/labor. Yes, I know the dealers bend you over backwards on the labor, but I didn't want to mess with taking the shift linkage apart and whatnot and from what I heard the 06 up.

I just wanted it done and with the tax return just coming in, I figured what the heck.

And I think I'm going to go with the stirrups first after thinking it over and reading the replies. Thanks for the input!

Went out today and rode about 50 miles or so. Felt a good bit more comfortable on the forwards. I was able to get the waffle of the bottom of my boots to grip the pedals better so I was more or less sort of hanging onto the pedal surface rather than pushing against them.

I still want to get the stirrups but it was noticably more comfortable today so that's good! And it seems to be more my right leg than my left that I notice any issues with. Probably the way the brake is positioned and the A/C cover...
