i suggest even if u let the guy do the install, buy all the hardware at amazon or somewhere and bring it in.

I punched in the part numbers into amazon and everything is literally 50% cheaper. For example, the steering wheel module is $39.99 on Amazon so, IMO, he is either getting screwed by his supplier or I'm getting screwed by them. I get that they are a business and as such should make a profit, and believe me I want them to, what I don't like is the idea that I'm getting face raped becuase I don't know how to install it myself.

yah, it's just the way it is in their industry. lots of mark ups.

but then again, if one had no idea how to install it and yet the shop does a clean and reliable job, i suppose that is one way to keep a brick and mortar shop going.

if u want to go cheap, then you'll need to do it yourself.

and yah, see if your locals would be willing to help.
