G63 BRABUS valve controlled exhaust installation
Hi
Just wondering of anybody has done or observed the installation of BRABUS valve controlled exhaust on his/her G63.
I know installing the mufflers is very simple but I am wondering about how difficult it is to connect the vacuum system and wiring for the sound management from the steering wheel.
The MB dealer is going to charge me an unbelievable rate claiming that hooking the vacuum system and wiring is a time consuming job.
I know this is how the dealers are; there rates are over priced
However, would like to get input from you guys.

What would you consider to ne expensive? Its a $8,500 exhaust on a $150,000 truck. Not a borla exhaust on a mustang. 
But in all seriousness, there is a lot to it, the electronics need to be programmed to control the flap on the steering wheel... Where did you purchase it? Id recommend a brabus dealer install. It may be beyond the ability of a normal MB dealer. Not worth taking chances.

I am talking about the installation charges which is around $1100.
The MB dealer is the authorized dealer for Renntech and deals with BRABUS as well
