DFW installer needed

Hello,

I live in the DFW area. I have a 2001 F150 Supercrew. I replaced the 4 door speakers with alpine S series speakers years ago. I recently purchased a new HU (Alpine IDA X100), 4 channel amp (Alpine MRP F450), mono amp (Kicker zx750.1), two subs (Kicker CVT 102), and sealed sub box from supercrewsound.

I do not have any experience installing anything, and don't feel comfortable doing it. Could anyone here refer me to someone reputable that would do a good job installing this stuff without costing me an arm and a leg. I figure getting a off duty install technician would be much cheaper than taking it to the large car audio stores. I went to the car toys in plano and they wanted like $40 just to drill a hole in the glove box for the ipod cable. Or if I must, does anyone know of a car audio install place that does a good job, that is reasonable in price.

I am not cheap, I just know that it should not cost 6-700 dollars to install this stuff, which is what I think it would cost at the car audio stores.

I have all of the electronics, just waiting on the box. It should be here 3/10-3/13. I have that whole week off, so would love to get it installed sometime next week.

Anyways, thanks in advance.

Try CCity. It should cost about 250 with wires and all.
