My trunk is arriving soon. Is this something that I want to attempt to install myself? My dealer advises me that if it takes over 15 minutes, he will have to charge me. I got the trunk and the mounting for $350 when I bought the scoot.
Do I jump in or chicken out, bite the bullet, and let him do it?

had mine put in yesterday and it took them a good 40 minutes - will probably get easier for them over time but this was the first ATL500 box they put on - glad I let them do it as there was considerable discussion and mullling about - but they only charged me $25 intallation - money well spent given my lack of mechanical aptitude - love the box, I think it actually helps aerodynamics but not sure why

I ordered mine (silver) on 31 October and it came in last Thursday, 26 December. Self installation and it took about an hour... VERY GOOD instructions included. Just need very few metric tools.

Did mine myself, was relatively easy if you're mechanically inclined.
You DO NEED a long hex allen key, metric size.... I had one so now problem.. other then that, it's a breeze.
