Default How long to fit a new Sigma alarm ECU on WR1 ??

Just had a new Sigma alarm ECU fitted on my 2004 WR1 after it was playing up & cutting the fuel supply off!!
Anyone know how long they take to fit as the dealer charged me a full hour labour, on top of the ecu price & thought it was a bit steep !!

Any help much appreciated!

about an hour would be right mate, as you need to locate the ol ecu, strip the wiring out of it and then strip the new ecu and connect the wiring to it.

an hour tops

an hour is a fair charge.

10-15 min to strip the car down
10-15 min to change the alarm
10-15 min to rebuid
10-15 min to test
10-15 min to do the paperwork.
