I wouldn't take it to pohanka or any dealer. Install it yourself and the money you save goes towards the next mod.

Live in Falls Church and work in Reston so I am near by. Let me know what night / when and I could probably come by and lend a hand as well. Never performed this specific mod on a vette but these are generally pretty straight forward.
