QuestionI want to put this and a new head unit in my car. Install is free for the stereo. Since everything will already be out will there be any extra charges to add this at the same time? thanks
Asked 5 years ago by Dragon2005c6.
- Answer I had geek squad tech service so it was no charge. If you don't have this feature there might be a charge for camera install. Just because you have radio stuff apart doesn't necessarily mean the same for camera install and wire run.
