I get why they charge so much for doing this job.  It's a doozy.

 I saw a bit of what NIRVC was doing on my Cherokee.
I am so glad I shelled out the money to let them do it!

I considered it, but after researching I decided I was not going to be happy with underside wiring and letting them put the plug in just anywhere on the TOAD.  To be fair, it was my choice to do the more difficult interior install.  The only thing big on a Bronco are the tires.  At 6' 6" it was very hard on my arthritic ass getting in there and getting it done.  It is not a complicated job if you just wire underneath and go into the taillights, but even that is a bit time consuming.
I also do not have much faith in the workmanship of most people these days.  On the RV I have found many little things that simply are unacceptable for what you pay for a new rig.  A bumper misaligned, a jack not plumb, both tank heater pads coming unglued, lights that don't go off when doors are closed, even paint over spray on shiny polished aluminum wheels, etc.  All these things with the smallest of quality control should not have occurred.  If quality matters, you almost have to do it yourself on some things.
