    turning rotors and pricing

    It's $15 per rotor for turning here in Bothell area last time I checked, but I have been buying new rotors from Rockauto for few dollars more. I started buying Raybestos brand from Rockauto because Bosch rotors started to warp on two vehicles with less than 5K miles.

    Replacing 2 prong outlets

    I don't think connecting ground wire to the metal gang box would do any ground fault protection. I had a house built in 1952 and I had electrician update all 2 prong to 3 prongs for me. He had to put at least one GFCI in a circuit. i.e. if you have 6 outlets on one circuit you can replace 5 with...
