Default Shop recommendation for MGW shifter install in a C7

Hello

I'm interested in finding a shop to install the MGW shifter in my C7Z. Located in the SF bay area and willing to travel for the right shop. The usual Chevy shop in these parts have a labor estimate too high for my liking. Has anyone done this in a good shop in east bay, san jose or peninsula?
