I agree. People who complain about the cost of sound tend to have never done a conversion themselves. Sure, it's easier for the factory to build it in. I guarantee you that for most of us, the amount of time involved is well worth the price difference. Most of us would consider our time worth at least $10 an hour and it would be a pretty slick feat to do this in 5 hours or less.
