 I see you have a Sky+HD box , so if your just wanting to swap boxes it's usually 149.00 plus 15.00 self install fee
 
Or
 
To add one as a multiroom box having a Sky+HD it's £49.00 + £60.00 install then £10.25 a month.

			MTV HD added to Sky Guide 
 
For HD subscribers MTV HD is now on Ch 126 with MTV on 237. 
 
MTV HD (placeholder) is on 237 for SD customers with MTV still on 126
