Local shop that specializes in pioneer double dins wants 200 to uninstall my old headunit and install my F90 wit ipod wire. This includes bypass. They dont hook up the vss though. I dont even want them to bypass it i heard it voids warranty i might just do the software one. What did those of you that didnt install it yourself pay?
Damn you guys really arent friendly to noobs going to bed bump
Man, relax... The forum was down for a bit and not everyone is here 24/7.
Either way, $200 seems a bit steep, but if you have a tough car to work on - maybe it is OK price wise.
For it to void warranty you would need to have a problem with the unit and then send it to pioneer. But if everything works - do you care?
At least on this board people say that anywhere between $100 and $200 is common. I'm at the same stage as you but have different unit - F500BT. It is portable but there is a lot work work that needs to be done to integrate it into a car. So i'm thinking if i should pay for it or do it myself....
Thats a very fair price...
Your posts were 45 minutes apart, how soon do you expect a response? If you pay the $45 monthly fee to the ADMIN, then you are assigned a 24/7 customer service rep who can answer all your questions within 10 minutes.
try to do it yourself.. worst case your out $200 people on this forum will help you
Sorry bout that I just saw a bunch of views and figured nobody wanted to answer a noon. I'm used to very quick responses on my car forum. Anyone else have input?
what other input do you want...
1. install the thing yourself
or
2. pay the shop what they want to install it
or
3. find someone who will do it cheaper
wtf do you need more input on

if people think its a fair price or not you fuckin j-o
Seems kind of steep to me. Then again it really depends on the car, I know that some of the new (er) GM's need adapter modules. Depends on whether the charge is to install them too.
If its for something like that, it probably isn't that bad of a price.
If its for something like a 1988-2003 Toyota truck, ask for a kiss and a reach around, cause they're giving you the high hard one.
It probably depends on where you are too.
Convenience is worth alot to me. If the shop is on my way to/from work and I can just stop in if there is a problem, because there always is one or two. $200 sounds cheap to me.
