Default Any C5 techs around S. Florida area?

I am putting something on my car. I was wondering if there are any C5 techs that are around me, palm beach, boca, Ft Lauderdale, Miami, Palm Bay, areas that can assist me on putting it on my car.
Please let me know.

There is a C5 Tech who posts here, But I think he is in Daytona. He is closer to you than to me at least. My local dealer does not work on many Vettes so I try to get tips to pass on. A direct phone connection to a real C5 Tech would be great. Good luck, Skip ;)

Yes I know Angel. I was wondering if there was someone on this forum that could help. I am putting on Breathless Non popup lights. Ernie wants to charge me 360.00 to put them on. That is crazy. I am sure I can do some of the work just like to have someone with experience help me work on it. Even someone that has done this already and wants to help let me know.
Thanks,
Jon Pine

Comon Erni...$360.00 :nonod: Id bet you could do it in an hour blindfolded :jester but it does seem high. hey, call him and say your considering buying a pair and are an experienced tech wondering how long the install takes, when he tells you its easy, about 2 hr, ask him if he'd do it for $150 :lol: you could call Frank at south Fl performance in Miami, tell him David sent you.

Skeeter,
Thanks for the advice. I am going to TRY to do it myself. It might take me a day or 2 instead of an hour or 2. But at least I know it wont cost me a small bank.. 360 or even 150 can be another mod on the car. I would not mind the help of another forum memeber if they did it themselves.
Let me know guys.
