depends on the year and options yo uhave, but honestly, i dont suggest anything bigger than 14 guage, you go beyond that, and you end up with a relatively large hole, its duable of course, but IMO compromises hte integrity of the molex...

the bigger i have done i think is a 12 guage, but thatwas on a Z, whcih is the same design but iirc it didnt have as many pins on that particular model

I am definetly interested in securing your services for a double din install. I'm looking to get the Alpine 505 in my car. Approximately where would you be doing the installs and approx what weekend or day and how much? I just don't trust any audio or service shops here in San Diego. thanks

 

i want u to install a rear view camera for me

 

+1 for the backup camera install.

Any opinions on this sanyo camera link?

Also is it possible to mount it like the qx56 backup camera? next to the license plate lights, cnet video of qx56 here

 

How much to trace down my engine noise

 

im hittin you up =P

 

awesome set-up!!!


And these are the items I was mentioning about for my M3:

Video Module

Let me know if something like that is do-able. Thanks!

 

okay, let me talk it over with my friend and see...

originally our plan is just do some dd installs in Gs...i think if we get into back up cameras and other stuff that are a bit more time consuming...we may not have enough time...

a few answers:

1. this will take place in yorba linda, a very very nice neighborhood

2. as for costs...prolly similar what i normally charge

which is for juts a double din install, 150ish, plus a little if its 04-04, we provide the harness and ant adapter, all you need is the ac controller and finisher...

then other add ons such as BT, or Ipod or Xm, or steering wheel control module, add anywhere from $25(steering wheel control) to $50 for LABOR per piece...

and then backup camera installation labor, depending on the camera, would be 100-150...

again,these are just very rough ideas on pricing...i am not sure if we have time to do more than installations. the idea is to get a few guys taken care of with in the one or two day period.

anyway, i will chime back in after i talk it over...

after looking at 16psi's installs, I hope a lot of members are taking advantage. A great installer is as hard to find as a great mechanic. Good stuff for you Cali guys.

 

+1

Wish I had my G right about now lol

Thanks for the help 16psi, maybe next time around for me.

 

When are you planning to come down?

 

thats part of the decisions to come too, i will make a decision with in the next week or so...but again, as early as late may, as late as late june...

what is in genal a good time for you guys? summer when guys are out of school?

it would be a weekend date for sure, such as friday/sat or sat/sun

I was considering of switching out my avh-p7500dvd for a double din unit but never found the time or energy to tear apart my dash again...

16psi, with you in town I'll definitely reconsider my plans...maybe new components/rear speakers as well.

 

okay, speakres thing we prolly wont have time to do, we just want ot help a bunch of guys get the most difficult part out of hte way, the double din

anyway, i ill talk it over with my bud, and maybe start an offical list in a week or two

b

 

Awwww, no speakers - ok.

I'm sure most of us are waiting for the official list/details of this whole thing...
