lil over an hour i think...from start to finish the whole swap took over 4 1/2 hours but i had some wiring issues due to the tweaker that owned the car before me...there was actually a wall switch wired in the center console (like a light switch, and all it did was turn on the door ajar light) lol.....and i had to beat the floor down where someone didn't put the jack in the right place. but it looks great... there's a small gap on the left and right side barely noticable. i'm making a small write up that descibes the main parts of how to do it because it's not just a bolt in swap lol
