$350 for fog light install on a Si....

That_Si_Guy · 06-08-2006, 01:30 AM

So Ive had my Si for about 2 weeks and bought some foglights, which cost me around 300 bucks. I called the dealer up and they will charge me 350 for them to be installed...doesnt that sound a bit ridiculous? Is it even worth it to have them professionally installed?

see if you can return them for full refund. Here are a few posts you might wanna read.

I paid $240 for my OEM fogs and installed them myself. $350 for install is CrAzY! Took about 1 1/2 hrs to install.

Yea mine were $48x.xx purchased and installed. Yea its a lot, but I have the warrenty on those as long as it lasts on the car. If I did it myself, they said they would only cover it for 1 year I believe.
I have done motor swaps, tons of motor work, suspension up and down all over, installed stereos, lets jsut say about everything that you can replace on the car, I have done just about. So I dont not trust my work, I just wanted that warrenty. If you dont care about that, install it yourself. The car is already pre-wired, just cut, bolt, plug, and play.

Installation costs kept me from adding fogs to my list of dealer add ons. Just had my bodykit and HFP rims installed yesterday. Am looking to purchase fogs sometime down the road and install myself. Some good instructions out there. Worst part looks to be working under the dash. Never enough room when working there.

Ya when I heard 350 my jaw literally dropped to the floor, I couldnt believe it.
