[QUOTE="ArmyNavyCopGuy, post: 8534783, member: 665886"] Hey thanks for the reply. I gotta correct you a bit though.I don't know where you got NYC from but I don't live in NYC. I live on LI. I also work in NYC and no one is paying $150/hr for oil changes. Maybe in midtown Manhattan in the Diamond district but not the majority of NYC lol. In fact, work is generally cheaper in NYC because of rent control laws. I had a quote for body work for my car where I live, and where I work. $800 cheaper in Brooklyn. Property tax is very cheap in NYC as well. I don't really know where you got any of that from because none of that is true. But to give you a comparison, I had my system installed in my new car this year the same town he got that quote from for $60. They did an awesome job too. $400 for an install is absurd. And yes, he paid $7/ft for the power cable alone. $25 for the RCAs, $21 for the ground cable etc. The nickel and dimed him for everything. I think he also paid $40 for the fuse holder. [/QUOTE]
