wanna install my deck. too expensive?

Well i currently have a very sharp Alpine MP3 deck that is currently installed in my fathers dump truck lol. I really want it back, because i do miss the MP3 feature the alpine has. BUT here in Canada, iv been quoted by future Shop close to more than 150$ just for an install. I have a 05 LS, cruise control, and 7 speaker pioneer upgrade. i dont care about chimes but i do want to keep the Cruise control on my steering wheel, as well as keep my pioneer subwoofer. Is there a cheaper way to do this? wireing harneses online?

i dont know what they were smoking but it should be an easy install for yourself. get the wire harness and plug them in and your set. taking off necessary dash parts as well. but u will lose the steering wheel controls (volume and seek n etc) but you will still have your cruise control. so dont sweat it bro. if u need help with the install lemme know.

the wire-harness $20
the headunit adapter $20

so it should cost u like $40 dude.

Thanks

I dont have the volume controls on my wheel, just the cruise control. But one place told me i would need an adapter that would change my cruise control to a little stick thing that goes on our lightswitch/signal light.
