They aren't bad. They aren't the best around, but they do quality work. For something like that you should have no problem with them.

Scotty's is good. I really liked Audio Warehouse when I lived closer to Christiansburg. Does anyone know whatever happened to them? Last time I was in C'burg, they weren't in the mall anymore. Did they move again?

I'd say just do it yourself. Amp and sub installation isn't hard at all.

Shit, I can do it for cheaper.

fmstatic goes to tech to and I'm sure he can help for a MUCH cheaper price.

I'd do it, but I dont have the resources here (freshman).

yeah i've got some tools here but you don't really need tools to install an amp wiring kit anyways. you basically just feed it through the firewall and then pop up the carpet and run it underneath. only tools you really need is a socket set depending on how your backseat comes out.

for JUST installation don't pay $100. haggle them down, it should only take them like an hour to do if they're actually working. if that includes wiring though then it's different.

also, regardless of what size amp you have, get at least 4 gauge... if you are only using a small amp and can get by with 8 gauge, you'll regret it eventually if you ever try and add on another amp or get a bigger one
