I'm looking to get PDC as an add-on. I didnt get it as an option because I thought it'd look nasty on the car....but it is barely noticeable, IMHO.

Anyway, it is apparently a 4 hour install, and that's assuming you know what you're doing....most likely it'd work out to be a several day project for myself. :)

I'm weighing the option of doing it myself (with an offer from Mr. Irv Brenner, who has been extremely helpful via e-mail) vs. not worrying about it and having the dealer take care of it.

So, since this apparently set by the individual dealer, I figured it'd be illuminating :) to get a consensus on:
1. $$/hour for parts install?
2. Any bargaining room in rate for long installs such
as for PDC? (I imagine the rear power sunshade is also
a pain in the ass to install as well)

As always....thanks.

Brian
