Isn't dealer math great???
6 plus $320 hahahahahahaha. Lets see a trained mechanic should have no reason to take more the a half in hour. So even if they charge you the full hour at whatever $105 an hour. There saying the plugs are worth another $200. Must be some sweet ass plugs.

just get your mechanic to buy them or you can just get them from any shop and let your mechanic fit them in.
I DIY my so I never go to BMW to change them.

It is not necessary to re-program.
