Few pics of my Volvo...

I didn't pay an installer to do anything but run RCA's and upgrade my alternator charging wires. He was a super nice guy and offered to help get everything wired in (had wires from previous systems) so i could jam on the drive home and not have to worry about doing it in the rain that night.

BTW the installer in question is Neill Barber...here is his truck:


 
Something new to mess with...thinking 3 cubes tuned to 32 hz, 50 sq inches of port.

nice equipment... i had a buddy get a install done at neils shop and i can say if neil does it i dont think u have anything to be worried about but some other guy at his shop did my friends install and totaly screwed his car up.. i wish i had pictures but i think neil took care of my friend and made it right........ anyhow my buddy bought all the equipment from neil and asking him to build a box and panel off the trunk and dynamat the trunk and rear deck...well equipment was 2 TSS 10's and 2 Hifonics Thors (3000x1) each .. the installer ended up not using the Kinetik he bought and ran 4awg from the battery then to the amps and put the amps on top of the box with no vetilation and but another amp in the tirewell ( where it overheated and roasted) then dynamated over all the factory clip holes and just broke all the pins off the factory panels and (set) them in place and the port was crooked on the box. lol but all in all i think neil gave him the install fee back and appologized.... just make sure neil is working on the car and u should be fine

Wow...that's shitty. I didn't deal with anyone but neil the entire time. He was very upfront about everything, and called me if there was anything out of the ordinary. I have dealt with plenty of shops over the years and this was the best experience I've had. Granted I didn't get anything close to what your buddy did, that's rough.
