So i got stuck with the crap end of 800 and owe til september on my stereo that i put in so they only gave the car 500 more value cause aftermarket isnt added individually its total value cause of the features of the car. And gieco was the other guys insurance they are paying for the car and the rental. I got a lawyer to go to town on the medical cost cause i did get hurt. Trust me lawyer up

Well for one. you chose Geico.. Get what you pay for.
That said... Rule 101 on why its never smart to mod any car. 1 you will never get your money back. 2 if like this an accident or theft happens you will not get the worth.
Their job is to cut losses and make money. Not help drivers or victims. Dispute it. Take the undamaged mods off and hopefully you have OEM parts.. And try to get the most you can. And your insurance shouldn't pay anything. The ones at fault should..
And if you are legit and get dog balled you could always sue for the rest of the loss.. But please don't be another slime and ruin someones life by going for everything they have due to a mistake. You are not entitled to a life of luxury. Just what the damages are.
Best of luck. Just hold your ground and you will get what its worth.

Dude, are you about instant taxi contractor liability insurance? If so, then I would advise you taxi insurance that I use for 2 years and quite happy using their services. Personally I use private hire insurance of Total Insurance company and you know what? It's profitable for me, because these guys have cheap prices on the taxi insurance and decrease the price for insurance in amount of 15% each year, by the way, they gave me a 70% discount for repair of my car.
