I am getting a 6.5 inch screen installed with a dvd deck in the new JDM console I have.

How much should this run me?

I know futureshop had me quoted for 150 to get a dvd deck installed (different then what I want now) so I hope it's not to muich more. So this post is like half rant/ half asking for advice of how much they should charge for this install..

thanks

I work for an install shop and we usually quote for a job like that around $100... I think $150 is alright but you could save some money. Shop around first, make a few calls and see how much you can save. :)

do it yourself for a fraction of that cost plus you will be proud of yourself when you are done...

you could save 150 by DIY bc its really easy..dont let all the wires intimidate you...i got qouted 200 bucks just for a flip screen install with no dvd player!!! all you need for a safe and easy job is:
crimp kit
wire strippers
instructions
time
electical tape (just in case..the crimping will cover the terminal ends)

jdm console...105 from jayspeedy24
jvc 6.5 lcd...$150 ebay
jvc indash dvd player...$200 ebay
DIY installation...$0
total...$455
The lcd fits perfectly in that empty space and i just put the jdm console over it and it sits perfectly. When you play mp3s, it shows the file name, artist,title, and album and nothing more on the lcd.
