Dealership accessory cost? (Hyperground Wires)

My buddy just got a hyper ground wire setup for his lancer, and he's wondering how much it's going to cost/time for install at a Mitsu dealership... he's not too comfortable setting it up himself, and personally I had it done for my RA by a mechanic... I'm not looking for DIY comments either, thanks!

im sorry but DIY comments are about all youre gonna get, its REALLY easy to install. odds are a dealer will charge about an hour and at dealer prices with tax that could be close to 80$

i would def not take it to a dealer to get installed. It litterally is super dooper easy. All you need are the usual tools people have lying around their house.
If you take it to a dealer they are gonna make you pay in body parts. It would probably be cheaper for you to drive down to florida and have me do it. lol

Electrocution = death. You were shocked. Unless you were mildly killed.
