Silver Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, Or U.S. Post Number: 532 Registered: Oct-05 | its up to you. that isnt a bad price actually. its all time consuming, expessially the amp. the subs are not hard to do. if you are scared about messin somethin up, just have them install it, and you can (when their done) look your self at how they wired everything. now you can know for future reference. thats just my 2 cents |

Bronze Member Username: Ruthless06Post Number: 72 Registered: Feb-06 | and its really not time consuming, I can throw an amp, and two subs in just about any car... not all, like mercedes and bmw's, and cars like that... in at the most an hour and a half. thats a nice clean install, power run down one side, signals down the other, all wires hidden, grommets used, and wires all nice and perfect length. bmw's and luxury cars usually take a bit longer cause you have to take the rear seats out to get a very clean install done. |

Gold Member Username: TjmutlowPost Number: 1654 Registered: Sep-05 | you can do it yourself, but if you really do not feel confident in doing it, then yes pay to have it done. |
