don't go to Honda,
They will most likely charge you too much.
Try to find a muffler specialist or do it yourself.
Midas will charge you 45 an hour and that's probably how long it'll take em to get the stock off and the new one on.

Most dealers that I've come across won't touch aftermarket. I had to drive to Ohio to find a dealer that would that would do the gears. Anyway, sebring is right, go to a muffler shop and expect ot pay 50-75 dollars.

I think you're better off taking the exhaust to a muffler specialist just like someone else suggested.

Honda probably wouldn't install it, or would charge an outrageous price.

Also, sometimes even "bolt-on" systems don't fit perfectly and a muffler specialist would have the tools and know-how to make it fit right.

Or just do it yourself. Takes a couple of hours if you're slow like me and isn't that big a deal. It's kinda rewarding knowing that you've done the work yourself too.

Took me an hour to install the Comptech. Make sure you lube up the hangers before hand. Most systems are only 7 bolts or less. This is one of the easier mods to do yourself and there isn't much you can mess up
