Default Gauges install in DFW?

Does anyone know a good/competent shop in DFW, TX that could install my gauges for me and not bend me over? I'm willing to pay for good work, but the last place I went to quoted me $1200 just for the labor. If I had the tools and the space, I may tackle it myself, but I just do not.

I'm looking forward to my next performance mod, but I want to do it right and get the gauges first. Any one of you guys interested in tacking the job? I can help and I bring lots of beer. Thanks guys, have a good one.

There is a place in Fort Worth called Speedtech, they are at Carson and 121. Mikes off road also does it but Mike is an a-hole so I would use them as a last resort, they are at Haltom Road and 121. Also North Hills tire and wheel in North Richland Hills they are at Grapevine Hwy and 183. Or you call call CD's in Arlington on Cooper. One last place but I cannot remember the name is on Division just east of Ballpark way.

it's pretty simple,
why not just buy the tools necessary? it's alot cheaper the 1,200 bucks

No joke huh? They were trying to rake him over the coals. Noproblem wont steer you wrong as he's had work done to several trucks. Give his advise a try, I'm 100% positive you wont hear anything near $1200.

Thanks everyone. I think I will give Speedtech a call tomorrow and see if they can do it for me. Like I said, I would love to do it myself, but I do not have access to the tools, the space or the extra hands any time soon. Thanks again for the direction.
