gday

Does anyone know a good car audio installer. Hopefully just a mate who does cashies or a decent priced business.

I usually do my own car audio installs but do not have the time or patience lately, so I am looking for someone who does a tidy job and has sound knowledge.

Its a pretty simple job, but as I said, Im over doing installs...especially in this weather.

Any ideas who? Thanks!

I would prefer cashie jobs - I know Darren is neat, but from memory he is pretty expensive.

Then again he lives 1 minute away from my parents house and 10 mins away from me, so its easy. Might have to ask him for a quote. Thanks Gradenko

GWP: sounds exactly what im after, but mandurah would be a bit difficult- thanks heaps for the offer.

Its hard for me to hand it over, because I usually do the work myself and im fussy with my sound installs, but all in all...its only a silvia ;)

If you're fussy bro - pay $$s to get it done right, first time ;)

understood..thats what im asking for

someone to give the $$$ to that will do it right. I am not convinced that many audio places really do it right when its not their car.

People tend to take a bit more pride in their work when its a cashie. Plus, $400-550 for labour on an audio install????? thats two quotes now. Bit steep for a bit of wiring up

im in Applecross

i dont mind the drive at all, sometimes its just hard to get someone to follow me as far as mandurah and then drop me back when its time to pick it up :D Its cool. If i dont find someone in the perth metro in the next day or so I will just slowly do it myself. Thanks for the suggestions MarkG

Hey Av,

I work in the offices above Westside car audio in Ossy park. I know the guys there pretty well and they have played with my car a fair bit. They do a great job too if you swing by one day or if you want me to meet you here one saturday, i can get the guys to run through the car with you.

Oh well thanks guys..I bit the bullet and got an audio shop to do it....It hurts to spend that much money on labour, but my impatience is often cancerous to my bank account.

I wanted this installed by the weekend and the audio shop is doing it today

Gday Nate ! we still have to catch up :) I will send you a PM soon for a partae

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
