Not taking digs at the good ones, only at the one mentioned in the first post; it's clear that "Boss"'s dealer, like unfortunately too many, obviously didn't know what he/she was talking about, and it's irritating to see how readily they were prepared to rip him off AND provide bad information.
Indeed true.
I actually bought the car about an hour south of where I live. The sales guy really helped me out and communicated well with me on the phone, so it was worth the drive to pick up the car. However, there is a dealership about 5 miles away, which was the one I called (instead of taking it an hour to the other place, which I will probably end up doing).
I called again today, and the guy told me for the unit it was about $280 w/antenna. I asked how much for the install, he said "oh, not much, I know it takes like at most an hour, so probably $100." As Im hearing him say this, im like WTF i just called the other day and they said $1k. Right then I can hear someone in the background say "NO! install with parts and labor is $995" and the guy goes, "oh, im sorry, its $995 for parts and labor, I was thinking of something different." F* That! $700 in labor? Some of these dealerships are a joke.
Im worried about having someone else do it or do it myself because Im worried it will void the warranty. I picked up the extra warranty because of troubles Ive had in my last two cars and was totally worth it. I should of just got it when I got the car and waited for one to come in... price to pay for being impatient huh.
