____________________________________________________

Subtotal $2765

After Tax $3020

Actually Paid w/install and tax $1875

I also had the same place install a $400 car alarm for obvious reasons. Which I actually only paid $200 for the alarm. They were trying to get me to compete in bass comps for them, which is why I was cut such a great deal. It sounds great, I just wish I would have went with 3 - 12" Kicker Solobaric L7s and an extra memphis 1000watt amp. Their installer there has 6 - 12" Kicker Solobaric L7s in the cab of his Chevy S-10. He swapped them for the 4 - 15" Kicker Solobaric L7s he had.

 
This is fun, but had to do it for insurance purposes already! I had to do an estimate for retail price of the audio which is why my company goes off of. They verify the when new retail prices if anything happens like theft, damage ect... These are the specs that were submitted to my insurance about 4 months ago.
