needs car audio rehab
so my buddy's m3 came with a system when he bought it but nothing worked. we bought two sets of 2 way polk speakers to replace the pos kappas that were in there and all the goodies to hook it up. when i finally looked at it, the wiring was so butchered you couldn't tell what was what. i honestly didn't even want to deal with it since i was doing it for free so he went to fry's who said they'd wire it all for 150 bucks (after talking them down from 250). well here's there handy work..
my friend called me after he picked it up to come and check it out and i was amazed that they let something like this leave the shop. it not only sounded like ****, but looked like it too. it also had some of the worst alt whine i've ever heard. we went back and the guy had a 100 excuses for everything. we pulled it in the install bay and i pretty much had to fix all of it and it took over 2 hours. we also threw in his old FI X 12... it was the head installer who did the install and he tried offering me a job after it all got hooked back up which i declined of course. bottom line, DO IT YOURSELF THE FIRST TIME...
