Default Houston Stereo Install...

I am getting the final pieces to my stereo together, and I should be ready to install it a little later in May. I will be replacing the factory BOSE on my CS Touring 6sp. I want everything out, and will build from the ground up except for maybe the power leads for the H/U.

Any of you fellow Z'ers out there have any knowledge that could help out. I am a do it yourselfer, but I wouldn't mind having an extra set of hands or mind to bounce ideas off of along the way.

Or if any of you know of an installer that is reasonably priced, I would entertain paying them. I sourced all my parts off the web, to keep costs down, so the local stores don't want to install it because of "warranty issues". Whatever.

Here is what I have and am looking for:
Kenwood DDX 7015 - done
Focal 165a in the front - done
Focal 165ca in the rear - done
(2) 8" Rockford Fosgate subs in the back - still looking
Amp for the fronts - still looking
Amp for the Subs - still looking

I had my stereo done at:

Executive Motoring

Houston, TX

they are very reasonable, and knowledgeable. They have done several stereo installed on the 350z.

ask for Brandon.

I went to Executive Motoring, and changed my whole system around. It is installed, and it rocks.

Ended up with Eclipse HU
Eclipse Amp
MB Quart components
Memphis Amp for the...
Memphis subs

It is by far the best sounding car stereo I have ever heard. It is crystal clear at any volume level, and at full volume level, you can't stay in the car very long because your ears start to ring and your head starts to hurt. I LOVE IT!

Thanks Apexi for recommending them.
