Default Help with stereo system install? AP1

Hi guys. I was wondering if anyone has a shop they would suggest, or perhaps a friend that does stereo installs on our cars? It would be in about 2 weeks when i'm looking for it to be worked on. Pretty simple(I think) just a new head unit and 2 speakers for the doors, and a JL stealthbox in the trunk with an amp. Any suggestions would also be welcome, I haven't been into car audio since 96' or so.

I've used a shop called Marksound in Schaumburg before.

I've been referred to Marksound in the past also. In my opinion, I wouldn't pay the money for someone else to install the head unit, it's pretty simple. I would personally have somebody else install the speakers though.

If you're going to pay someone to install an Amp, sub, and speakers. Throw them the $50 to install the HU too.

Especially given that there will be an amp involved. They are just going to have to take out your head unit and modify what you already did anyway.

Normally i'd do it myself, I put the sony that's in it now in there around 2003 and had no problems. I bought the Pioneer DEH-80prs and don't want to mess it up though haha.
