While I'm probably technically competent enough to do this type of install myself, I'd feel better paying someone qualified to do the job and know its done correctly and if I have any issues, I'd have warranty recourse.
Just my 2 cents worth.

Good points. And, in theory I agree with you. But, I'm one of those hard headed guys who like to do all my own stuff I recon. I realize that may not be the wisest thing!
By the way, I was a flying Crew Chief on the C141 before they retired it. Best days ever! I have been retired for almost 15 years, and have not been on a C141 since the early 90's, but to this day I can still remember the enginers panel gauges, engine run procedures, and all the specs.... Can't find my keys or remember to take my meds, but I recall that stuff!!! LOL
