Beach Auto Sound in Huntington Beach, yes very high price, probably most expensive around, but will get it done the first time. They also won the award for one of the TOP 50 IN THE U.S stereo shops, so they'll take care of you, and I believe the owner owns a g35 also. I use to work at a stereo shop near by and worked with every shop from hb to santa ana, maaaaaan are they shady hahaha, dont let them work on your car!! Autobacs is probably a chill place, but if you dont buy from them they're dickz.

just gave them a call (cuz i have nothing to do at work ) and dude, they DO know thier Sh$^. they charge $60 per hour, so i'm looking at $120-$150 which is not bad considering the guy knows exactly what he's doing. i was thinking about doing it myself, but will probbably waste 8 hours and not even get it right.

Hey man I use to be a salesman at a stereo shop, I'm not an installer but I do know my sh*t, but when I get down and dirty to do it, heeeeeeeeeell no I'll remain a salesman hahah. Go to Beach Auto Sound, alot people critizise me, but not to sound harsh, that shop is the "rich mans shop", then again we dont drive crap cars, so take it to where it belongs, they are the best in OC, i mean if you dont believe me its fact, even worser Im admitting it because we use to compete with them, and we couldn't hang with their shop. Theres 4 other shops on the same st. also, and beach auto sound takes them all. Just say the Asian guy that use to work at South Coast Sounds on Warner sent me and he'll take care of it, ask for TOM if you go in, hes a old super smart white guy.

But me though, I don't like to break a sweat, and I have money, so I dont do anything my self, heck I dont even do an oil change hahah
