How much should I pay?

[TopTrainer]

I'm ordering two (2) 7" monitors to go in the headrests and already have a dvd player that will most likely be installed in the center console. How much should I pay to have these installed, roughly? I got one estimate from a friend with "hook ups" at $500, that seems a bit excessive, but I don't know, I've never had this type of equipment installed before.

dont pay anything and do it yourself just take your time and measure!!

Expect 50-75 per hour.
Depending on the level of ability, I would say about 4-6 hours.

Thanks for the link to your write up. How long did this take you, and what holds the screen in place?

I took Luke's advice and did it myself. All told it took me about 2.5 hours to get the monitors in the headrests. I zip tied them to the posts in the headrests to ensure they stay nice and tight. The monitors I bought are probably a little big for the headrests, but I don't mind. I'll post pics tomorrow. Thanks for the help!
