(Mods are welcome to move this, I wasn't sure of where the best place to put it would be...)
Pending some discussion and a vote at a fire board meeting later this month, there's a chance I may be appointed to fill a vacant line officer position in our fire department, which would eventually mean installing a siren in my POV. That's a bit beyond my skill level, especially since I'd want a "clean" install in my new (to me) Jeep. We have two shops nearby that would be able to do the work, and should things move forward, I'll undoubtedly get estimates from both companies, and consider it a blessing that I will have two to compare to one another. BUT, that doesn't negate the fact that I have no idea what a good deal is or not.
So, assuming installing something like a Carson SA-365 in a 2014 Jeep Cherokee, what might I be looking at as far as labor rates, and most importantly, how many labor hours might I expect to be billed for?
