Hey All,

A sad tale of woe coming up. Basically, after having my soarer for two weeks, I got tired of the factory sound system and whacked in something a bit better. I had it done at JB hifi Frankston. They did an awesome job, the guy mounted it on some MDF above the fuel tank. Far more than he had to do for the install:

So i'm happy with the install. I start backing out... and SCRRRR ...

I didn't take a photo ... but it took out a chunk of the wheel arch. I could have cried. So now its up at the smash repairers getting fixed.

Anyway, that's the story.

PS . Anybody have a passengers side rear seatbelt for sale?

John I'm fairly sure I have a rear passenger seatbelt. I'll get back to you tonight.

I like where they positioned the amps, much better than taking up boot space.

John, what did it cost you all up?
And what did JB Frankston charge to install it for you?
Cheers

From the reciept :

$275 head unit (i plan to sell this in feb as i'm gonna get christian to hook me up with an AVIC)
$80 single din install
$350 alpine amp
$120 Install 4ch amp
$95 install 2ch amp
$80 wiring
$18 facia thingy
$600 at smash repairers ... lol
PRICELESS - the look on my face after waiting over 5 hours for the install and smacking it on the wall

So about $300 for the install ... but it took just under 6 hours, so i think i got my money's worth!
