I have been told by some dealers that its labor intensive to install, is that correct?

No. You can install this yourself if you are mechanically inclined. I unhooked my current awning from the supports (be careful with the springs), suspended it from the rafters with ropes, removed the old arms, installed the new arms, removed the endcaps from the old awning and installed on the new arms, mount switch and run wiring. The wiring is the most time consuming piece depending on how you want the install to look.

We called several types of professionals (electricians, appliance repair, handyman, etc) and couldn't get anyone to install it. We were replacing one a handyman put in about 10+ prior so we just did it ourselves. It was not too hard as we had the prior one to model the install/wiring after. I don't think we could have done it if it was a new install.

not sure what your question is don, but I have the owners manual installation is fairly simple. you can send me your # and ill contact you and maybe walk you through the installation. the main thing is that it be put in facing the right direction

Do you plan on doing the installation yourself? I would be tempted to let a pro do it.

There is a lot of original wiring harness that has to spliced into and bypasses done to make this unit work. It took about 3.5 hrs to install it.

Difficulty of install will depend on skill level. We do provide wiring instructions for the install.

Because it needed some other service I had the dealer install it then. He did say it was pretty difficult due to the location Sorry I could not be more help

Yes, if you need warranty service, you will need to have a qualified serviceman do both the install, and repair. That has been my experience...I guess they don't want DIYers tackling installing this. It takes about 20 minutes to install yourself!

yes, it is easy to install, if you read the owner's manual and follow instructions well.

Technically, I can't say that it is because I had our maintenance guy install it. But, he was able to do it without complaint. I think installation is straight forward.

No. The install instructions from their website illustrate the effort involved.

I have seen many people post comments stating that it was easy to install. I'm not an electrician, and recommend you have someone who understands the installation to help. The instructions are not step by step, which makes this an above general knowledge installation.

I brought mine to a Best Buy and paid their car stereo installers to do it. I think it cost about $60 and took them less than an hour. It didn't look like it was too difficult if you know what you're doing, but I didn't, and didn't have time to spend trying to figure it out.
