Default short-shift kit on 997.2 labor costs

Thinking of having dealer install the short-**** kit on my 997.2 2010. What should be the labor rate?
thanks

If you follow the instructions online (B&M makes a fantastic short shift kit, MUCH nicer than OEM, and their instructions are awesome) it'll only take you 1-2 hours and is a very easy (IMHO) DIY project for an afternoon or evening.

Yeah, 90 mins avg for B&M unit, remove console, reinstall, etc.

We have 'em in stock if anyone needs them.

+1 for the B&M and another +1 for Bumperplugs. Great products and customer service (and price) from both.

Easy to do yourself, save a few bucks, learn about your car and enjoy a better driving experience.
+1 on B & M
