New member introduction here

Hi everyone! New member here. I am very into my music and have a very nice home system but just bought a 2004 Lexus GS 300 that has the shittiest system I have ever heard installed! Bought a whole new system and trying to get it installed now. 46 year old female live in La Selva Beach CA. Looking for someone to install my new system within 75 miles of my 95076 area code

Welcome. I do all my own stereo work, but I take my daughter's car to Best Buy. They have published prices, and I've been satisfied with their work. They also guarantee their work. I purchase the equipment and schedule an appointment. You might want to find reviews on your local Best Buy stereo install section.
I'm reluctant to recommend privately owned stereo install shops, as some of them will take advantage of customers. I once had two different employees quote me $70 and $399 for the same job. Something I wound up doing myself in 30minutes. Good luck with your search.

Good tip for getting the service of Best Buy, heard some good compliments about their works.

Thank you will they do the install if you dont buy your equipment from them? I already have most of it and the only thing I dont have yet is the audio frog door speakers which they dont have

It appears that you can bring your own gear, but they may be sticklers for brands they're authorized retailers for. I doubt a brand like Audiofrog will be on their list. Still, I doubt most employees and shop managers there are sticklers for that rule since installing a speaker is the same with basically every brand. Audiofrog's speakers are easier to install than some of their products if anything. They make money separate for the install, so I'd be surprised if they denied you.

Thanks I will check with them next

Yes, they will install equipment not purchased from them. I purchased my equipment elsewhere, There was no issues. I even had a no-brand backup camera and they installed it.
