Full Installation

Does $300 sound like a good price to install a head unit, pair of components, pair of coax, one 4 channel amp, one mono amp, one sub, and one box....The install is everything, all the wiring and tuning....Thank you

wow,is that what they get at the shops?

Seems like a fair price,just make sure you buy the actual products from the shop that is doing the install and not supply them your toys for install.

Thats a surefire way to get hosed because the shop has no responsibility for items not bought from him directly - and when your system sounds like shit or is damaged , unless your buddys with him or the shop owner they will tell you

"hey its your amp or HU or whatever thats screwed sorry about your luck kid,lata"

Thank you for the advice...Unfortuantely that is exactly what I will be doing...I am going to order the parts online and the guy will then install them...The $300 does not include wiring ($80)....In fact the wiring he is planning on using is Hifonics, is that good or should I buy that online also, maybe JL or Rockford?...
