Default ARB Drawers and fridge slide unit

Hi folks.
Anyone fitted these?
Hard to install?
I've received a $415 fitting charge quote and was wondering if that's realistic, or not.

Are they are the "plain box" style ones ? If so........

A mate fitted one to his shorty and its was a bit time consuming as you had to part assemble, mark, drill and bolt through the floor ( two people really needed )... not hard but fiddly.

Also ( and this may no longer be the case ) there was no finisher panel supplied to fill in the gap at the front of the unit...... looked very average when you looked in from the front doors. This for some inexplicable reason was an "extra".

May be a different or updated unit now but that was the situation,

Be this set, I'm guessing.
The sliding top is the main feature that is making it the choice for me.

Odd, but the US market gets both single and dual drawer options, and we can only get one draw with a divider.

Not really answering your question but I was flicking through the Drifta website a few days ago and noticed their system for the JK. Looks pretty good and they can fit whatever accessories you want to it I guess, such as sliding fridge beds etc. It would work out a good bit cheaper than the ARB one as well if the price on that link is anything to go by.

Going by that link fitting time is 2hrs, that's over $200/Hr. Mmmm maybe I should invest in an ARB franchise!
