There is 3 rules with Redline Auto....
1. Never tell them where you live, what car you own, anything personal for that matter
2. Only BUY parts from them, don't ask them where they got it, or how... Just say what you want, accept their price... pay and walk out
3. And lastly... NEVER have them install ANYTHING!!! ever!!
If you are really that **** about 37 dollars, go ahead and risk it with redline. I would much rather pay the extra money and bring it to someone who actually knows what they are doing. Just my $.02

Labor for R&Ring a clutch is 4.5 hours.
My standard shop rate is $100/hr.
What are the other shop rates?
Take their shop rate & multiply by 4.5.
Yes, other shops can do it cheaper.
But, as with many things in life, you get what you pay for.
Do the other shops follow factory specifications & procedures?
Do they even have a torque wrench...that works...on the premises?
I'm not the cheapest, just the best.

Yup, they gave me a slightly used GSR tranny once for a couple hundred bucks... I call them to pick it up, he goes "Hold on let me see if my guy has gotten it yet, because it's coming off one of his friends car"... calls back "ya he is getting the tranny later tonight from him, so if you want come get it tomorrow". So I go get it the following day, the tranny still has tranny fluid in it LOL.... Wonder where they got that tranny? hmm...
Another time i was in there, and one of the guys comes up from the back and goes "What do you want to do with that integra out front".. Guy goes jokingly... What integra? the other guys goes "you know the one we got from L.A.!"( i look outside the integra has dealer plates on it)... He goes hmm we got an integra from L.A.? the guy goes Dude!! Come on... you know about the integra we got from L.A.
Makes you wonder....
