Best install and best price is to let DDM do it! Take a three day vacation, drive to Piedmont, leave your car and get a rental, get a hotel and enjoy Greenville and the folks @ DDM.

Lord willing, I'm driving 1250+ miles (each way) from Lubbock, Texas in four (short! ) weeks to get mine installed.

Plan a short vacation and see the Southeast US.

What part of Canada, I see a lot of drivers in SC from Canada. If you are on the Toronto side I believe that you could follow I90 down to I77 to I85 I believe this is the correct route. Use the trip as a weeks vacation in the US.

I would figure about 7-8 hours labor at whatever rate they charge give or take a couple. $75hr * 8= $600 . Just a ballpark guess.
