About how much would it cost for audio/video system installation in a car?
Question by Pimpalicous: About how much would it cost for audio/video system installation in a car?
I have a 1983 Jaguar XJ6 and I have already bought the audio/video items that I want to install, the only problem is the cost of the installation for everything I have. These are all the items that I have and want to put in the car:
Four 5 1/4 speakers
Four 12 inch Subwoofers (800 watts max each)
One 2400 watt 2 channel amplifier
Two sunvisor monitors (8 inches)
Two headrest monitors (9 inches)
Trunk Hush Mat
How much would it cost to install these items (approximately) and how long would it take, and also where is a preferred place to go to like Best Buy, Circuit City, or a local shop?

I would recommend a small privately owned shop that has been around for more than 5 years. You can’t haggle the larger shops on install price.
Standard prices for installation in the Chattanooga area are:
speakers $ 50/pair
Subs $ 25 each
Amplifier $ 75
Visor & headrest monitors $ 150 each
So you would be looking at about $ 900, you can talk a small shop into doing everything for around $ 750.
Prices are alot higher in bigger cities.
You are probably looking at 8-10 hours labor for one man.
Expect to leave your car for 2 days.

I agree with cplkittle, go to a small shop.
Most large places will not install something you don’t buy from there.
