[QUOTE="ragnarok, post: 356775, member: 550490"] First off I have little if any experience in car audio, I just cannot afford to pay to have it installed. My friend works at Circuit City as a car audio technician, and is hesitant to do it for me, because, well, you know about that hesitancy if you are a car audio technician for any electronics or car audio store. This means I am stuck doing it myself. Anyway on to the bloody problem then. I have two '92 Mits Eclipses (one a parts car the other the one I drive).
