My stock answer to anybody that worrys whether a shop's quality (and attention to detail) will be up to their standards is to find another shop or do it yourself!

I haven't "racked" a Brick but I did install a recycled factory rack on a 1986 Dodge caravan I had years ago. The hardest part was dropping the headliner. I just laid it out where everything seemed to fit together the best, drilled holes, and bolted it down. I used stainless hardware with large fender washers on the inside. I put a dab of paint arounf the edge of the body holes and a light coat of clear silicone on the mating surfaces. Never had any leaks.
