FMIC install

I bought a VRSF 7" fmic that planned to install this weekend. Broke my right wrist Thursday morning. I went to a local shop this morning they said 2-2 1/2 hours labor, $225. Anyone recommend a shop in the Westchester/Rockland county area. I was figuring to do it in an hour and a half even with the cutting.

Just want to let you know man that $225 is a huge rip off. I just had a FMIC installed. Called at least 5 shops in nj/Philly. Average priceless around $150.

Agreed! Average price should be around $150. If you want a great quality install and at a great price... it's worth the time to get a quote from Z&M Auto
