The big three is so easy... Why in the world would you have a shop do it, anyway?

It's LITERALLY as simple and unscrewing a bolt, placing the new wire on the bolt, and screwing the bolt back in. The toughest part for me was getting to the alternator, just because it was so inconvenient under my car.

Also, @Bettr n&\#39; Revrse; is in CO, maybe he could help you out with something if you're local.

The grounds on the big 3 are easy. Tho the alternator wire can be a lil more difficult depending where it is. I know on my car the alt wire takes a hour, having to access it from under the car.

dude, you need to do that shit yourself. Big 3 is the easiest upgrade.
