Installation charge

[Ikeehc]

Hi, got an amp and a subwoofer. Now need installation + cables/wires. Manual indicates a 4 guage wire is required for my amp. Intend to put the amp underneath the driver's seat. Any idea what much is the installation going to cost? Any installer you guys would recommend? Thanks.

think it would cost above $50

check around different popular audio shops

$50 is too little, be prepared to pay between $150-200 including materials, only those normal quality cables and wires. The process is not as simple as plug and play.

 

1. Run main fuse from battery into the car.

2. Strip off carpet to lay the power cables underneath.

3. Strip car doors and take out speakers to run speaker wires from speaker to the amp

4. Run speaker wires under carpet to the back for the sub, assuming the sub already has a box.

5. Take out HU to run RCA cables and remote cable down to the amp

6. Connect up everything and assemble back all parts

7. Tune the amp and HU to get the desired sound quality and volume. At least some basic tuning.

 

Definitely cost way above $50 for some work like that

main fuse fr batt.

strip off carpet no nid so serious lah. but must remove front seat.

if regular ICE pple can get ard $100-$120
