So.... I look stupid, huh? (Crazy install price)
Okay, so Im in Houston, and I go to a local car stereo installation place tha't pretty high in recognition for their work. I run down the list of the things I will need installed (being that I have/will have all of these parts myself):
AVIC-Z1 Ducatiboy Bypass Ipod Interface Bluetooth Module PACS Steering Wheel Controls XM/NAVTRAFFIC Unit iLink iPod Connection (For Video & 3rd party GUI) Rear View Camera (w/ Night Vision) Front View Camera (w/ Night Vision) ["Look Ma, no headlights!"] Directed Electronics Video Switcher DLS-UP6's in front and rear JL-Audio Stealthbox Zapco Reference 360.4 Zapco Reference 350.2 The guy at the counter hits the calculator and comes up with a figure: $2990 Im thinking WTF? I mean, come on - im not asking for custom speaker pillars or some tricked out amp rack - you got to be BS'ing me with 3k for labor only. Did i have written on my face? I might as well ship my car to Unique Autosports and have Will do it, if that's the case. So, i politely took his card and told him that I would get back to them. Afterwards (and while still in digust), i call another car shop (Mobile One), and they give me a price for under 1K, with a custom bezel for the unit and possibly a false floor for the amps. The only thing they won't do is bypass the Z1 for full functionality in motion.Comments/Feedback? Kryptonite Last edited by Kryptonite; 11-17-2006 at 07:58 PM. |
