They quoted me $207 for both calipers and $178 to install both. Almost $400. These are the "chain" guys.

I've done some shopping since my initial post and came up with a price of $56/ea. w/pad (core dep. not inc.). Then I found an independent close to home who would install for $40/ea. Figuring in the "hassle factor" and minimal tool inventory, $40 is a good deal. So a few phone calls and I've cut the price in half. I will be checking out the price of fluid off the shelf as well.

Thanks for the tips, I'll be sure to mention the shims/silicone when I take it in.
