Labor costs for radio upgrade?

[Tc911]

Anyone been faced with a labor charge on top of the $500 plus tax to install the new FM/XM radio after doing the MCU1 to MCU2 upgrade? Van Nuys wants $743.75 for the radio...

There should be no labor charge. It is $500 + tax. Period.

From their own site: Infotainment Upgrade

My vehicle has already undergone an Infotainment Upgrade. Is it possible for me to purchase the Radio Upgrade?
Yes. The purchase and installation of the Radio Upgrade is available for vehicles that have already undergone Infotainment Upgrade. For vehicles that have not yet undergone an Infotainment Upgrade, we recommend having both the Infotainment Upgrade and Radio Upgrade installation performed at the same time. The Radio Upgrade costs an additional $500 plus applicable tax and there is no difference in price if you have the Radio Upgrade and Infotainment Upgrade installed separately or together.

It doesn't specifically say labor is included, like the Infotainment upgrade does. But it does says it costs "$500 plus applicable tax" It doesn't say "$500 plus labor and applicable tax."

I got MCU2 + Radio done at the same time and paid $2,000 plus tax

Isn't $243.75 the normal amount of tax on $500.00 in CA?

I just got my MCU2 upgrade finished yesterday with the FM radio as well. You can see in my invoice there was no additional labor added just the $2,000 total plus tax ($172). (PII redacted) and no i'm not under warranty, that ship sailed like 1.5 years ago
