I was just told by BMW dealer that it takes over 6 hours to install just the mount. WTF?

Its relatively easy.
A fair shop labor rate would be 2 hours total (remove and install)

Mechanic that replaced mine, said it was PITA but it did not take three hours though. I think BMW adds extra hour to everything they do.
