Hi guys and gals, I really want to swap the OEM speakers in my sedan for a set of Infinity's, but after a really bad past experience with a big-box electronic store damaging my car I've become very paranoid of people taking my car apart.
I'd like to know if anyone can recommend a place that can do this install with their eyes closed. Obviously with plenty of experience with 7th gens.
Thanks!

Why don't you ask one of us to do the install for you?

Does it have to be Ottawa.I'm getting my whole system put in this week and this guy is good.You might know Car Tunes in Cornwall.Steve D'Alessio is the owner he has the Yellow Hummer,Purple Supra,Orange Viper,Gold BMW M3,T-Rex 3 wheel bike. He can do it with his eyes closed took 15min to install my HU. If you want to do it here PM me and I can set it up.I'm good friends with him so I can get you a decent price.

^ if that doesn't work out, you should check out Auto Trendz in Stittsville www.autotrendz.ca that's where I got all my audio stuff done

Thanks for the replies guys; I'd like to avoid Best Buy and Futureshop if at all possible. I'm sure some of those guys know what they're doing, but to quote Forrest Gump: "You never know what you're gonna get"
I've heard about Auto Trendz from a co-worker, but it was about remote starters. Can you recommend a particular person? Or is everyone there competent?
I'd really prefer to stay in the Ottawa area, since I don't have a lot of time to spare at the moment, putting in 72hrs a week at work. But I might wait until after the holidays, in which case I'll have time to spare and head down to Cornwall. Thanks for the offer Hemi, I might take you up on it.
Again, thanks all.

not sure man, I had it done 2 yrs ago, and at the time I think they only had one audio-specific installer.. it was a guy in his late 50's, but he def. knew what he was doing. Their quality is good though, that's for sure

Go to the Future shop at South Keys and get Joe or sean to do it Sean used to own Dash works(1 of the first audio shops in Ottawa) And Joe is the shop manager and he to was a co owner of Dash works before moving to Future shop

Yah I got mine installed at Dashworks ... they did a pretty good job. I'd go back again if I was getting another one ... it was like $75 or something like that.

ironchef

Was Dashworks the one off Merivale a few blocks south of Hunt Club? The name sounds familiar...

JDMspark009

Yeah merivale and bentley is where it was

ironchef

Cool, they did some work on my buddy's old SVT Contour, and it was very good. I think I'll look into that.
Thanks!

NoiSe

SerialD

You mean the magic light from his ground.

All hail the magic light.

ironchef

No offence, but after the huge headaches I just went through...I'd rather deal with someone who is insured
Not that I'm doubting your abilities, but anything can go wrong on any given day.

Abe doesn't install like this does he? Gotta love the zip ties to hold on the exhaust wrap

Yah seriously ... what the hell was that guy thinking. Its even harder to install it trying to go through the underside of the car. What a moron.

listen fools, maybe i do messy installs. but at least everything i do is done with my hands. not some guy doing **** for me.

modifying your car is about the joy of working on your car, not the joy of letting people work on your car.


damn fools
