I've read quite a while back that some German installers were charging around USD $50 to $100. The install probably takes 30 minutes or less.

I believe it does affect the warranty in the UK, which is why the module has an "invisible" mode when deactivated, making it invisible to SDS (Star Diagnostics System) when going in for regular service. Moreover, I've read that others have routed the power cord (12v) from the light control switch to the roof module to follow the OEM wire harness and make it less obvious when the triangular side panel at the right side of the dash board is removed for other reasons (unlikely event).

You may want to PM DansSLK to find out where his new office is.
