Default Replacing Spark Plugs 08 GS

I'm slightly over 60K on my GS I know in the service manual it states to replace spark plugs at that mileage; I just don't want to deal with dealer pricing for that service!! Anyone know of any Good Indy shops in the Maryland area that work on Lexus?

If you can turn a socket, these are the easiest plugs in the world to change out.

Yep! There should be a vid somewhere. Look in the DIY section for a write up. Prefer Denso plugs. You can buy them from Sewell. My local AutoZone had them.
