They have been in business for 30 years. They really stand behind their work. The owner Jeff wants to make sure his customers are satisfied.
It is a simple install and they have done it many times, don't let them charge you too much

Any recommendations for installers in LA area? And what would be a fair charge for the install?
Depends on what work needs to be done. If you're looking for something basic:
- replace PCM with the Pioneer
- 997 double-din trim kit
- Pioneer internal amp powering stock speakers directly (bypassing Bose amp and using factory wiring, whenever possible)
- wiring/mounting GPS antenna and mic
That's probably 3-4 hours of labor. Labor rates are anywhere from $80-$150/hr for quality work. The wires and parts would probably add another $25-50.

You're also going to need to add the dash trim kit ~$250.

I would suggest getting several quotes from a few different places. Make sure your installer has worked on 997's before (important).
