Hey guys, recently ive been interested in adding things to my tc such as lights and other things that are offered through the dealer such as door stills. I was skimming different threads on this site and I came accross this site: http://www.trdsparks.com/index.php
After comparing multiple accessories on this site and with dealer prices, I realized things were a reasonable amount cheaper on the TRD site. Now the question is if I were to by for example door stills on the site or mud guards, how much do you think a dealer would charge to put them on....or should I just try doing it myself?

Even without any technical knowledge, you can install the majority of accessories yourself.

if you have a dealer install any outside parts you will need to pay their hourly rate. for us this is $85/hour. This rate varies from dealer to dealer.

The mudguards are incredibly easy to install. You just need to drill some holes and screw some things in. It is no big deal.

alright well what about something like the subwoofer, im sure i would be able to figure out how to install it properly but im worried about somehow voiding the electrical warrenty because I know that they're rlly strict about that stuff

actually htere's no drilling necessary, i took a look under the wheel well and all the screws are in place all ready for you to just pop them uoff nd re-fassen the guards on...peice of cake...just woried that they wont look good

Mudguard? Who is this TC for?

My grandmother has mudguards on her Ford Thaurus.

The door sills are so easy to install yourself. Directions are in the package if you cant figure it out just by looking at them. DIY!

I just installed the mudguards today in about 20 minutes-- without contest, the easiest to install factory option you can get, short of floormats.

As to who needs 'em... I do. The 245s fling mud like little kids high on sugar.

I haven't found an option part yet that I would have the dealer install, other than the S/C, and that would only be for retention of warranty.
