Independent needed for 60,000 major service in Los Angeles

My normal independent on the Westside is charging more than the local dealer for a 60,000 major. Does anyone have any recommendations for an independent in the SF Valley?

Many thanks.

Many thanks to each of you. I have the strap but haven't used it on the 996. I suppose that will be the last resort if I cannot find the wrench.

Thanks again to all.
