Default What should xenons cost me to install??

I have asked two places to install the xenon conversion kits i have bought. One told me 100-150. Another that i actually went into said 75, and then i told him id have to take the wheels off, he said oh maybe extra. But i explained it couldnt be over 25 min.

I dont wanna pay over $50 bucks, does that sound right?? 100 sounded crazzy to me!! forget 150. Even 75 seemed high to me. I though 50 would be fair, what do you guys think? How long did it take anyone.

I got K2 6000k conversion kit, if i get a cam ill take pics........

dude,

for $150 dollars do it!!! I'm working on installing some right now. It's going to be a ***** to mount the ballast, and then feed all the wires to the high beam. The biggest problem is that the whole headlight assembly is one sealed unit. Not like most where the high and lowers are seperated. So i have to be extremely careful in how i run the wires to the light. I don't want any condensation getting.

I'm looking at 4-5 hours build time.

I'm assuming you paid a nice price for the Xenon, correct? What's another $100 - 150 to have them installed correctly? Save money where you can but not where you should'nt.

airgate is right. If you're not very mechcanily(sp) inclined, pay someone to do it.

2nd that one. After spending $400 or more on the kit, you might as well shell out $75 to get it done right. You only have to pay that just one time, you know- Lemme know how it turns out--
