I've been in a mad rush to get my stereo up and going

I have JBL 6x9's, JBL 15", JBL 6.5" components, Alpine 9835 and a Candence Z1000 Monoblock.

Im in WA and im just wondering were would be the best place to get them installed, last place I asked quoted well over $300.

Basically were did you get yours installed in Perth?
Does anybody in WA on these forums a keen caraudio installer lol

Much help needed :rant:

is the sub already in a box? do u have amp wiring? speaker wiring? cause thats where a lot of that $$$ will go (well, thats wat they'll say). But yes, car audio labour is fairly high priced, but u get what u pay for.
However, im sure there will be somebody on the forums willing 2 help u out with it, its not an overaly hard job.

No wire what-so-ever since I have no idea what to be looking for, I dont know anything about gauges on wiring ect ect..
Yeah the sub is in box waiting to go.

Only thing in the car is the jbl's on the normal wiring, I just clipped mitusbishi plugs...

where abouts have u asked dude, jus do a ring around and compare prices. My older bro works at alberts, theyre prolly a little bit more $$ on installs but u generally get a better job done by places like them. U do have to take into consideration all the cabling and so on needed for ur install cause that is a large chunk of the bill too
