Avionics shops and Installing Garmin 430W questions
Posted: Mon Oct 28, 2013 10:45 pm
All,
I wish to install a Garmin 430W.
Question (1) - is ~$8,500 a reasonable (good price) for a New 430W what was never used or installed? (2010 and I assume the database needs updating).
Question (2) - I'm in the mid-west and willing to travel. I would like recommendations on avionics shops you have used who know/understand Cessna 170's and are capable to install a 430W.
I am not going to change-out the panel as I wish to retain the classic panel . The 430W will fit next to my right-knee and requires an annunciator, which is okay.
Thank you for your thoughts.
