Thus solidifying my opinions of the shit that comes in and out of these stores. Should have taken his 3 grand to a real car audio shop. He should have saw it coming with a name like “VTECnical”. lol ---

That must be one expensive heater duct if that was $12k in damage. Drome Sound did some cob work on my old S10. At the time I didnt know how to install a stereo so I had them do it and they used electrical tape for an antenna adapter (and I wondered why the radio never came in good) and broke one of the mounting tabs for the trim panel and glued it together. Now I dont trust anybody to do installs.
