Getting stage2 kit installed

So Im having trouble finding a dealer in my area to install it. 1 quoted me $850 and wouldnt budge and 2 other dealers said they have no clue, theyve never done one. Neither of the dealers would look it up for me. 1 dealer said go talk to parts, another dealer (the biggest in the city I might add, the most reputable for service too) asked me what I was talking about. I started telling him what it was and he ask me if I saw it on TV or something. I told him no, and finished telling him what it is. I then told him it says itll take 1.5 hours according to the service manual. He then told me itll cost $400 without even checking anything UGH

Can I get it installed out of state? These dealers here are ******* idiots.

You can get it done at any stealership that'll take your money.

Most dealerships will charge for 3.5-4 hours for labour. At $100/ hour, $400 is on par.

But you can get it installed by any GM facility no matter what state you go to.

The install costs $850, not the kit AND install. They also wanted $850 for the kit and said they wouldnt install it if I brought them the kit.

After reading more and more about the warranty issues, Im about done with trying to keep my warranty intact by there stupid BS kit and rules.
