Just curious as to what anyone has paid to have the marker lights installed after your H3 purchase. I've been quoted anything from $500-$625 parts and labor. I'd do it myself, but don't have the garage (cold here!) or free time to do it. Thanks for any input you can provide.

Expect to pay $300-$500 in labor for installation of the roof marker lights at your dealer. The only benefit of having the dealer install them is that if you have any problems with them they will honor it under your warranty.

You can also buy these on eBay. Wonder if the dealer would install them though? I'm getting them

You can buy them on eBay and the dealer will still install them however I don't think there's much savings buying on ebay versus getting direct from the dealer.

That's a fair price. In my opinion, $175 in labor is a good investment. If something goes wrong (water leaks, wind noise, etc.) it's covered under warranty. Installing marker lights is one of those things I'd personally leave in the hands of a dealer.

My Marker lights were installed by the dealer for $376.00 inc tax, which is much lower than the estimate of $700.00
They look great on my H3.
Aloha, H3-o

And you could probably fill a small book with the problems with roof marker lights discussed on this forum.

-Yes you can! But don't let it stop you from getting them!
