i'm thinking about installing a pioneer avic-d3. what shop would you guys recommend for the install?

 

Good deck! I want one of those too. But sorry... don't know much reputable shop. I usually DIY. Not that hard...

 

Kennedy Hi Fi on Denison and Esna Park. They are pretty good. Look for Allan.

 

Getting mine done right now by Audio Illusion,
290 Spears Road
Oakville, 905-842-2419 Arlindo Silveira
They have done lots of Z's G35's and top end cars.

 

is it the AVIC that you are getting too?

 

it's easy to install.........DIY man

 

Hey Jason,
No I'm getting a Kenwood DDX 7019. I wanted the USB direct control so as we move forward to more of that type of media I'm ready.

I must add though Arlindo at Audio Illusion is providing service like no where else that I have experienced. He new I needed my car for the show this Sat and needed to pick it up by noon Fri for a dyno so Arlindo has been working through the night to get this complete for me. He called me at 11pm last night to go over a few things and said he would be at the shop working into the wee hours of the morning to get my car ready.

It's like the guys on TV doing whatever it takes to get the cars done.
I cant wait to pick it up to see and hear it.

 

i don't mind doing mechanical by myself but electrical stuff i know nothing about. i barely know how to strip wire!

 

Its not hard...folllow the DYI steps here, basically remove the old stereo, hook up a wiring harness and install the new one.

It looks really overwelming at first but you will see once you have the dash apart and the deck out with the wiring harness it is pretty much plug and play.

If you bring it to an installer they will charge you plus take your car for most of the day. Why pay someone 100 bucks when you can save the money.

Just go pick up a wiring harness and dash kit.
