Your first mistake was accepting the job. Never let a customer dictate what parts you are going to use. They are on the cheap, you have no idea of the history of this part. You have to clearly state that if you put the drive in YOU are not responsible if it works or not and your fee is the same.
That being said, is this a replacement drive or an addition? Is the drive compatible? Do you have to do the formatting, system installation, data recovery, user setup? In addition you are going to need the cable and replacement adhesive strips the opening tool, see this guide:

Don't forget the inline thermal sensor! OWC In-line Digital Thermal Sensor for Hard Drive Upgrade for 27" iMacs 2012 and Later
@danj Inline sensor on a 2014?
All 27" 'Thin Series' iMac's with 3.5" SATA drives need it when adding or upgrading the SATA drive (HD or SSD)
What confuses people is the PCIe SSD only models which don't have the SATA drive works so they assume when they add the drive it's not needed.
The problem is the system senses the added SATA drive so it enables the Apple custom SATA drive thermal sensor logic which then fails as the drive being added is not the custom Apple drive.
I don't see Apple altering this design. The inability to sense the HD's added heat would stress the system.
The 21.5" iMacs use a 2.5" drive which runs cooler (and slower)

Not sure I follow what you are looking for. Labor costs are very different around the world so what I charge here in the states will be very different than in other countries. Best to find a local shop and ask them.
