I think OP should also just call up the local dealer and at least get a quote there. See if they're willing to use parts you bought off FCP (lifetime replacement warranty) or elsewhere.
IMO the prices for these mediocre quality parts are a joke.

Woah. $400 for the shaft sensor..
Yeah this job is outside my comfort and experience level.. so I will have a shop do it. I don’t mind the $1800 if it’s everything they stated, new sensor, new bolts, new cover etc by a very reputable shop.
I will call dealer and see what they say and if they include changing sensor/bolts for their price.
At my mileage of 124k wi probaly just do the cover instead of gasket only. I don’t want have get back in there during renaming ownership of car
