too many factors to consider...but if you have all the right tools it should only take 2-3 hours so think of it like that... buddy?  if so maybe $50 - $100? not a buddy, but brought beer?  $150? some random guy? $200? if he wants to help &/or stand around & watch you...$350!!!  lol!!!

i was basically kidding about the whole thing & since everywhere's different, maybe call a couple local shops (including tire shops) to see.  you don't want to go too high & scare him away, but you definately want it to be worth your time.  it also depends on how hard up for cash you are...

Id put this little thing in the factor to ... did your brother get a deal on the speakers ... its one of those situations ... you dont wanna rape someone who gave you a deal on something ... thats just how i look at it .....

If you have all the right tools it should be a walk in the part I think 200 is a good price. Labor rate in Florida is expensive.

i would charge $300...you know know there are gonna be a few nuts and bolts that wont br easy to remove and gonna take extra time....i think $300 would be a steal....would charge a little less if hes buying the beer, lol
