4000 rupees for head-unit installation, frame & canbus | Is this reasonable?

I am planning to upgrade the infotainment system in my Renault Duster.
My car is 2016 Diesel 110PS RXZ AMT and it currently has the factory fitted system which is very basic.

I came across this in amazon, but buying in Amazon is easy but installation is a challenge.

I also went to a local shop in Bengaluru and he has a similar product with GT brand. It comes with 4GB RAM, 64GB storage and supports Wireless carplay /Wireless Android Auto. Quoted price was 10500 inr for the unit.
However he charges around 3800-4000 inr for frame+canbus+installation charges. Is that reasonable ? Please suggest.

Yes, that's reasonable.
Purchasing the frame, canbus + OE harness connectors will cost around 3k

Before installation check for the visibility since the HU position is lower in Duster.

Pretty reasonable. But do enquire about any wire cutting involved and if it does they use proper connectors and not just wrap them with insulation tape. Electrical shorts are big possibility in aftermarket work.

Thank you very much Mr.Boss & freelancer for your valuable feedback. I will enquire more with the local vendor.
Planning to visit him over the weekend.
