It depends on what year truck you have. At most of the shops I worked at for a 2000-2002 we were charging between $200-$225 for the radio install only. If there were any add-ons such as sat radio, iPod, Bluetooth, etc the price went up. For a 2003-2006 for just a radio w/ nav install it ranged between $100-$150, without nav was generally $85. For the 03-06 w/o nav, it's nothing more than a basic radio install except for bypassing the parking brake wire.

If you did not buy the radio from them, a lot of shops will jack the labor price way up especially if it's not a brand that they carry.

$200-$250 depending on the additional equipment.

650 just to install it? That seems really high. Im guessing part of that was for the modules to make everything work but still sounds high.

This is why I do my own shit, or pay a homie. There is no reason that job should cost more than $200 :imo:

Best buy only charged me $100 to install my DNX5120, and I just went there yesterday to see what they would charge to take it out of my tahoe and put it in another car and it was only $125. I would just do it my self but $125 is worth not sweating my ass off for 6 hours tommorrow.

I'm gonna take a road trip out to austin and come see ya.. probably spring timeframe.

I'll have you do my HVAC LED's and the double din install :)

I'm thinking of the DDX514.. love having a volume knob insted of a button.
