    Cost of putting power poles on 04 519 vx

    Hey guys, I recently purchased a used set of power poles for my 2004 519 vx. I'm wondering what I should expect to pay to have them installed? Please keep in mind that I currently have 4 batteries , a charger, and oil reserve tank in my battery compartment.

    Thanks in advance

    They arnt hard at all to install. If you can screw some bolts together you hould be able to install the poles.

    Very Easy to install yourself however typical install rates for duel poles run about 4 hours of labor time at most shops. 100 to 125 per hour . I've heard of customers paying north of 7 to 8 hundred (rediculious). We charge just by the hour with most sets coming in at 2.5 to 3 hours or 250.00 to 300.00.

    . You could put the pumps in the setback of your 519. I did that with my 520 and they are behind the battery charger, accessible through the 8” cover. A guy in our club spent $1500 to have his poles installed, do it yourself and save some money.

    I found a shop that removed the poles and sandwich plate from the boat of the seller I bought them from and is going to install them on mine with new brackets for $600 and put them in the setback. I think that sounds like a a fair price.

    300-400 would sound about right without any extra parts or accessories.
