should I have my dealer do the install even if my husband can do it?

Sandra, if you can jack it up safely, your husband should be able to do it no problem, although it's a 2 person job I think. I helped my husband do ours and I am clueless but my spare hands were helpful. And if it's an Electra Glide, you can really only lower it an inch before it starts to rub. I'd suggest to lower it 2 inches first, try it and see if you wanna go more or less.

Not very hard he can probley do it.. only tuff part is if you have side bags like my road king when the shock moves back on the bracket you may need to modifiee the bags

If your husband can do it there is no advantage for dealer to install unless you just like spending money. Just use blue locktite on bolts and torque to specification. Dealers around here will not install because they will not assume responsibility for suspension modifications. Hope this helps

They ask you before you order. It can go both ways, depending on what your car is.

If you install yourself 1 year and you have to deal directly with them. If you have authorized dealer professionally install, 3 years and you have to deal with that authorized dealer/installer. More expensive to have professional install but easier and get the three year warranty. Just keep your receipts. Ask dealer about warranty to make sure you getting the three years and that they are authorized dealer/installer. If you install yourself follow instructions to the letter if you don't they can void warranty. Don't use pipe putty when connecting pipes. Messes up o-ring and voids warranty. Be ready to have that discussion if you install and something go wrong.

Difficult is all in perspective, with some knowledge in radio connections, you should be able to install yourself as I did! It would also depend what you are installing it into?The levels of difficulty will of course vary...

I hired someone to install the system after I couldn't do it myself. Sorry, I would do the same or return it.

Pretty sure it's the same thing the dealer uses. If I were you, I would call them and ask what they use.

I don't think so. Be sure to ask the dealer that provides this brand for installation

not from the factory, no. There are mods available that are easy to instal, or you can have one put in. It will not affect any of the performance.

It all depends on your dealer. If the issue has something to do with the intake then they will void it.

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

My husband did the partner CD maybe twice. He did read the information and we discussed our labor plan. But he was not highly involved. I think you'd be fine.

Yes, kinda hard to install. shop dealers for install, after checking 3 dealers found who did install for 115, was quoted as high as 275.

Yes but you will have to have the dealer program it. Some will do it for free others will charge you.

I had to try it a few times but it does work and I was extremely happy. Not everything is as easy as people say or as it looks but it does work. Just keep doing it until you get it, because the only other option is to go to the dealer and pay them. They will only do the same thing you can do and rob you of your money, keep trying

No. This is not a D.I.Y. type of project. If you have done these before, you know this is a good unit at a good price. If you are doing it for the first time, pay someone to install it. The wiring harness is as big around as your arm, and you need specialized software to program the unit to your specific vehicle.

I found that the unit was easy to install, if you get the right parts to do it. Go to your local electrionic store or autoparts and buy the harness for your car an a installment kit and to process should be.
