TWellman, I need your help

I've contacted several installers in my area to get my Kenwood DDX7015 installed. Three Cartoys gave me three different quotes:
CarToys1: Head unit install/$45.00 (No dash kit needed), wiring kit/$13.00, SWI-X install/$50.00
Total: $108.00
CarToys2: Head unit install/$250.00 + $125.00 for custom dash kit required, Wiring kit $13.00, SWI-X install/$125.00
Total:$513.00
CarToys3: Head unit install/$45.00 (variable price on custom dash kit), Wiring kit/$13.00, SWI-X install/$45-75 (depending on infrared location)
Total: He estimated about $200.00 total

As you can see, all the quotes were very different, the second being ridiculous. Two installers told me there was no dash kit available, so they would have to custom make one. another told me there was one available for $28.00.

Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated. Looks like my hope of getting this done quickly at a fair price are fading.
