I decided last night to finally get serious about getting my dashcam installed in my car. I found a well-reviewed service online and put an inquiry in using their online form.

How much money do you think someone would charge to run a couple of cables through a car and connect them up to 2 cameras and the battery? The cables, cameras and everything required already provided by me, the customer. If you guessed FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS then you might be interested in hiring this company. THE FUCKING DASHCAM (2 FRONT AND REAR) WAS $435 AND IT’S ONE OF THE BEST ONES YOU CAN BUY!

It’s a job I’d honestly almost try myself. A job which should likely take a professional maybe 45 minutes and I’m padding that.

Anyways I wrote back to their email telling them their quote was insane and about $150 more than I’d expect. Called AutoBarn out in Melton and they’ll do it for $270 no problem. I can swallow $270 knowing they’ll it well and do it right.
