I found this guy who does installs of Renogy systems. It looks like a pretty good deal to me but I think he's missing fuses in this quote .And of course you have to buy batteries separately. Is there anything that looks wrong with this ad? Anything I should ask him?
Thanks y'all I know I've been asking a lot of you but I should be getting a small inheritance soon that will be just enough to get me a vehicle and a build out .I'm sooo stinking excited and trying to make a few plans while I wait.

No switch or fuse for panels
No switch or fuse for the controller
PWM controller
10 Gauge wire
Install of inverter $350 if you buy it?

Sigh
 
For the future, when the link to the ad no longer works:

Ill ask him about those things I guess? On his web site he offered more things. On the inverter I read it as $350 for the inverter AND the install but ill double check. 
What gage wire should it be?  I have a used 800 watt inverter. I don't know if it works yet.

Also as highdesertranger suggests I should hire jimindenver. That would be great. Jim are you going to be in Kansas City when I get this money? Lol I couldn't afford his gas money here y'all.  I have no plans to travel west for a long while. I have to stay where my work is.
