I'm not sure what a "normal" price is, but I wouldn't pay that. Search on here, there's plenty of how to's. I'm sure you'll come across something that can help you. If you can't, PM me and I can pretty much walk you through it.
What kind of gauge? Electric/mechanical? Where are you trying to mount it?

Its a straight forward install. IF you dont feel comfortable honestly try a local car audio shop.. They could atleast wire it in for you, then you could do the vacum line portion. Otherwise $125 range would be more fair
