Just take your time on whatever you aren't comfortable with. When it come's to car audio a decent shop that take's pride in the work they put out won't care alot if you take just a little longer on your particular job especially if it make's them look better. Head unit's really aren't that bad since nearly everything has a harness for it and after you've done a few head unit's doing the will come natural. The only thing I don't like doing car wise is the damn alarm's. I will always pay someone else to do mine lol.

What shop are you applying for? What are they carrying? I just moved from down there a year or so back, and DB Fan lives down there.

Just go to the store and find a decent adhesive, no one is on this early in the morning to advise you well on this. Just make sure it's expensive

Expensive shit tends to work better when you have no clue what you're buying.

Hey sounds good. Those commissioned box sales are tricky. If they can get several a week there's decent money, but be careful. Basic boxes require you not getting paid much for your time //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Congrats bud
