Default Injector fitting time

Morning all. Just a quick one. How long would / should it take to fit a set of injectors. This will be done by a garage. It’s just I spoke to someone yesterday and they said about 2 hours ? I thought this seemed a long time ?

depends what age car as if its a New-age or newer then you have all of the awkward crash braces, etc in the way........

some of the early side-feeds can be a total pain to remove also

don't think its over the top albeit we would charge based on actual time taken, there is a number of items that need to be removed just to simply access the rails
