Viper 5501 alarm. $500 installed??

Wsup everyone. Well I recently purchased a Brand New Viper 5501 Alarm. A shop that I went to is charging me $500 for the install just because the G is a stick shift. They also said the reason why they're charging that much is because all the modules they need to buy?

Am I getting ripped off? Or does $500 sound right?

Thanks a lot.

Try another shop.

Or ask for a quote on the additional modules and labor charges.
