Default dealer service (preferably in orange county)

Hey guys, I was wondering if you could recommend me to a reliable dealer for some things done to my car.

I'm going in for an unused free oilchange (I think this is only at North County), but I also need to replace a hatch strut (or preferably both w/ the bigger struts for the pedestal spoiler). Also, I believe I qualify for the TSB (service bulletin) for roof hatch rattle (got an early 05 model).

I'm also interested in getting a TRD suspension (springs, struts, and rear sway). I heard from a fellow SLer that he got his suspension done at Power Scion in Irvine and it cost roughly 800 bucks for installation and parts.

Is there any place that could hook me up like that and/or not try to rip me off and has reliable workmanship? The TRD suspension is a maybe if I could find a nice deal but I need the service done for sure.

If you're near Power Toyota in Irvine, they have a nice dealership there.

There's a great place in baldwin park...not that far from OC, and if you have the parts, they will install them cheap and do a great job...they will also do any service such as 30k, 60k tune up or even an oil change. Their link is in my signature and if you have any other questions feel free to PM me...these are stand up guys!

I go to Toyota RSM, ask for garret he's really nice and helpful. I've had some little picky things ive taken it in for and they've either told me its a normal thing or fixed it. I had it in today and yesterday to see if there was a problem with my ipod radio and they sat there with me for 30 mins yesterday and over an hour today playing with other radios and other ipods to figure out whats up with it. I really like them over there. When i went to power looking for a car they were always on top of me and didnt help alot trying to track down a car. I also heard there service isnt the best but i guess others have had great experiences. The people at Toyota RSM are very nice very helpful and do not hassle you to buy a car.
