It is very different feeling when you just cash out and someone installs everything you ask for, in comparison with doing it on your own. Plus, if you know what you're doing and got the right tools, it's really "fun" to do. I put fun here in quotes, because whoever did anything, knows that sometimes things don't go according to plans and 3h work easily becomes 13h
That all being said, if you're not the hands-on type of guy or you don't feel confident, it's better to pay a professional than to watch your wheel overtake you on the highway...
