Dropped off truck at first stereo shop in late March...got it back in late May. Paid the stereo shop $6k (labor only) and they butchered my L. 3-month custom install looked like high-quality swap meet install.

Three days after I got it back, I took it to it to a new shop. It's been there for the past 2 months. Everything is just about done but nothing can be installed because the co. manufacturing the boot is taking it's sweet f*cking time fabricating the boot. The boot needs to be installed prior to install of all the other parts to check for leaks, etc.

We've been at their mercy for the past 2 weeks. Today they said we would get it next week for sure. Once we get the boot, truck will be done in 3-5 days depending on how much touch-up will need to be done and how quickly all the painted fiberglass parts (box, etc.) dries completely.

Co. is on the East Coast. The East Coast = bunch of lazy asses.

 

Well you have one purdy truck, that's for sure! Hey, since your truck is down...wanna let me borrow those 22s for a while?

 

Sure, why the hell not. It's not like they're being used.

 

Haha, I'll pay shipping

 

Why would you take the Truck to the East Coast for a Stereo ? You cant tell me that Cali doesnt have a shop that could do what you wanted ? Sorry to hear about your problems though.

 

u got beef with the east side?

j/k

 

Sorry to hear that man, don't fret though, hopefully these new guys can get it right and get your stuff straight!

Btw ive had my L for 1 yr and it only has 1700 miles on it. Sits in the garage all the time, I might need to get rid of her.

When you see his finished project, youre all going to be sick to the stomach

 

I agree with BUzzzz...why is youre truck on the east coast egtting the install done...is this shop that much betetr than anything you can find there. I would hate to find you youre trucks been done for 4 weeks and they just been pimpin' it around..lol

 

His truck is in Cali getting the equip installed but the boot is being manf from somone on the East Coast.

 

Ok that makes sense. Thanks ****.

 

Werd!

 

They're so close to finishing, yet so far. It feels like this will never get finished- not installer's fault.

My dad came by to visit me yesterday and thought I had sold the L because he hadn't seen me drive it for a couple of months....I told him I let my girl, Selma Hayek, borrow it.

I noticed in your signature the comment about your auto open cover. Do you have any pic's of the install and info on where you bought the parts. Thanks.

 

No pics yet. The actuators were purchased by the stereo shop, but if you pick up a copy of Truckin' magazine you'll find a shop advertisement listing the price range of the actuator.

Good luck.
