Considering that I've got the Sport button what's a good price for a full PSE install with wiring from a dealer?

I called on dealer and they want $1,580!!!

Mine was installed by local mechanic for $400, not including the PSE itself.

The wiring is the labor intensive part of the PSE install. Even though you have the Sport Button you still to get to the DME (located behind the rear seat), route the PSE wiring harness via the large grommet on the passenger side of the engine compartment and then connect it to the DME. This job requires careful removal of various trim & carpet panels, Bose rear shelf speakers, etc. You need to be fairly agile to work back there and then have some help when you snake the wire harness from the engine compartment to the cabin.

You need to be very cautious connecting to the DME. A mis-wire could cost you dearly.

I bet dealers would want at least 5 hrs. of labor (ie. $500 to $600) for this job. I did it on my car and I would never want to do it again. If you're a 'small or slight' person or a contortionist it makes the job much more manageable.

dealers arent cheap. I just got charged 600+ to have the outside air temp gauge re-installed and the headlights wires that the bodyshop installed improperly. I think the front bumper had to come off for this job. Seems like an awful lot for just a bumper removal/installation. Not sure it really takes 5+ hours to do. I guess the service guys gotta eat...

I only installed the PSE (on all the time), but as I recall if you have Sport Chrono, the install time is 3-4 hours. It's not a cheap job, but $1,580 is ridiculous.

Just had mine installed last month in Pittsburgh. I will check the labor cost and post ASAP. I did not have the sport button and had the full electronics installed.
