Less than an hour. Looks complicated, but steering wheel is an easy job & comm unit is behind that.

It's not really complicated, it's just some of the connectors are a bit weird and can be awkward if you don't know the trick of them.

i had mine done, £25 to put it in, but the first one i put in was broken, so it cost another £25 to put a good one in.
