some places will tell you a grand but don't pay them to do it any shop who has the tools and has done it before it will be 250 or less

its just smarter to get it all done at once, instead of paying for two seperate installations that could be done at the same time.


Also how many miles are on your car, you may want a bearing rebuild kit.

*EDIT* - your gonna need either a speedcal or a tuner to fix the speedo yourself.

get the bearing rebuild kit to be on the safe side.

your not gonna need a new speedo, but your speedo will be off. You just need it recalibrated is all.
