    Default Sti-R owners, what did you pay for installation?

    Assuming you had one professionally installed. Even though they're discontinued, there are some good deals out there and I've seen a couple of authorized dealers that have them on sale.

    I shopped around for my install and the norm seemed to be about $250+ or they just charged $55 an hour. I did it myself and it took about 3hrs.

    Did it myself. It's a fairly easy installation just time consuming. It took me a few hours as well.

    I had mine professionally installed for 150$, but that also included a discount because I sent 3 friends to this guy to get jammers installed. You can go to a place like best buy and they would probably do it pretty cheap.

    its about $50/hr and takes professionals like 2-3 hrs to do it. i would negotiate a flat rate though, so they cant work super slow and charge you more. go to local auto sound & security shops and ask for quotes.

    They can do just as good of a job as anyone, had them install my blinders and zr3s. They just don't advertise custom radar installations.

    I did mine myself and it took more than a few hours. But my install was a bit custom.

    Contrary to popular belief, some Best Buy stores have excellent installers. The majority/rest of them suck pretty bad though. As everyone said, 2-3 hours should be the norm for a standard install.
