Maybe $50? i'm not sure. It is pretty easy just time consuming. People usually charge a good amount

usually for front components it's like $90 and for rear speakers like $50. If no components then usually around $50 for front and $50 for rear. this is all assuming you are just putting in new speakers and don't have to do any metal cutting or custom install.

^^^^^ is about right. maybe a touch less if you buy the speakers at the place you get them installed.

just disconnect the wires, put new speaker in, and re-connect the wires. should be simple.

well the stock speaker was connected with a harness, i just cut the harness and spliced it with the little wire kit that came with my speakers, + to + and - to -. this is toooooooo easy to pay someone to do, now unless you are running an amp to the new speakers that may be a lil tricky but if you are replacing speakers with an upgradrd aftermarket speaker you should do it urself. it will feel alot more satisfying that way. check the sticky for the wire diagram on + and -

You can use the existing wires although they are super crappy...if you do end up paying someone to do it, have them replace the wires with better ones, but you should do it yourself, its damn easy....just takes a while, but with help would be done in no time! I wired all my stuff in a day myself and it wasnt difficult at all.
