How Much Does an Ignition Interlock Device Cost In Texas?

Are you wondering about the expenses associated with installing an ignition interlock device (IID) in Texas? LifeSafer provides a cost-effective solution, with rates less than $3 per day, ensuring both legal compliance and affordability. The overall cost of leasing an interlock device depends on various factors, including Texas’ specific legal requirements and the duration you need to have the device in your vehicle.

We understand that post-DUI expenses can accumulate quickly, and we strive to keep ignition interlock fees as affordable as possible. It’s important to note that you’ll be leasing the device for the mandated period rather than purchasing it outright.

Understanding Your Texas IID Costs:

The total cost of your Texas IID depends on several factors specific to Texas:

  • Installation: Installation costs typically range from $50 to $150. LifeSafer uses certified technicians experienced with all vehicle types, ensuring a smooth and efficient process, especially for newer vehicles with complex wiring systems.
  • Monthly Lease: Your monthly lease fee covers the ongoing monitoring and support of your TX DPS-approved IID. LifeSafer prioritizes reliable and accurate devices to ensure compliance with Texas regulations.
  • Calibration: Regular calibrations (usually every 30 days) are required by law to maintain your IID’s accuracy. LifeSafer includes calibration fees in our transparent pricing structure.
  • Removal: Once your court-ordered IID use period ends, LifeSafer provides professional removal at a competitive rate.
  • Length of Use: The duration of IID use is mandated by Texas law and depends on the severity of your DUI offense.

Texas-Specific Factors:

  • TX DPS Requirements: Texas is an “all-offender” state, meaning a court can order an IID for any DUI offense, even a first-time offense. This can impact the overall cost compared to states with different DUI/IID laws.
  • Location: While our pricing is generally consistent across Texas, there may be slight variations based on your specific location.

The cost of installing your interlock device can vary based on factors such as your vehicle’s make and model, with newer vehicles potentially incurring higher installation fees due to their intricate wiring systems. Additionally, the duration of the IID requirement and Texas-specific requirements play a role in shaping the pricing structure. Please keep in mind that pricing may differ based on your specific location within Texas.
