Niagara installers?

Anyone know of any good installers in the Niagara Region for car audio? I am in Niagara Falls Ontario.

Thanks!

Hello,

Thanks for the reply! I decided to use Base Electronics in Welland for my install. I heard a couple good things about them, but haven't seen many reviews. We'll see how it goes.

Got my car stereo items yesterday at Base Electronics in Welland. They are a COMPLETE ripoff. I supplied all parts, except the wire and amp kits/distribution blocks.

This is what I had installed:

Double DIN head unit.
2 front door speakers
2 rear deck speakers
2 amps
1 subwoofer.

For the grand total of $864 to install it!!! STAY AWAY FROM BASE ELECTRONICS IN WELLAND!!!

BASE Electronics reply;
The bill was $863.55.
$99.35 was sales tax.
We supplied, a box for the sub, 4AWG amp wiring kit, extra RCA's, Distribution block, 8AWG wire from distribution blocks, connectors, 9 conductor wire front to back... $324.20 in parts.
Actual labour was $440.00, less than standard price in industry for the amount of work.

I saw that on Google Reviews. I also supplied the speaker harnesses as well, so it would be easier. After having some speakers cutting in and out, I looked at all speakers to see how they were installed. The guy at Base Electronics used electrical tape!!! Not even wire connectors, or the wiring harnesses I supplied!! If you look at the other reviews, he has done that a lot.
