SnowDrifter Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 Co worker has an '07 accord and needs the following done: Run the power/ground wire, remote wire, RCAs, and associated terminals/connections. He has the supplies himself, just needs someone to do the labor. I'm no "professional" at this stuff. He just needs some basic wiring. He asked me how much it would be and I don't have the slightest idea what a fair price would be on this. How hard are these cars to work on? $50? $20? $100? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbeljefe Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 Is it a hybrid? If so, the battery bank is located behind the back seat and presents a bit of difficulty in getting zero gauge through to the trunk. Other than that, they're not hard to work on. As for what to charge, what do you think your knowledge and skill are worth? I can't price another man's work for him.

BASS_ZEALOT! Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 start high 1 bill if it takes you less time /effort you can always decrease the $, but removal of head unit a couple of panels & maybe take out front seat & reset air bag sensor ,lift up carpet may need firewall grommet ..etc..can be done in an hour... if you work fast & no probs... local stereo shop will charge more & might not be quality work..

KillaCam Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 I do it free just to be a nice person. And the fact more than one person agrees does not make it a circle jerk, it makes it a bukkake scene and you're in the middle Chick took 3 shots of Jager, and then, pissed in my mouth..

Sergeant_Skyrim Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 Explain to him step by step what you need to do giving an estimate how long you think it'll take. Then ask him what he thinks a fair price to pay would be. If it's agreeable with you go for it! Build in progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamHT Posted December 12, 2013 Report Share Posted December 12, 2013 How much time would it take you to do? Those cars are super easy to run wires through, unless it's the hybrid. If he's a good coworker, $50. If not, grab $75. $100 is what I would charge but I was in a shop, and for my buddies I never charged. They always repay with steak and liquor so I'm never worried. I k ow he's just a co-worker but you have to decide what you think is fair for your time. Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?
