FutureShop Install

Here is my question, what do you guys think of FutureShop as acar audio install place? I have a $250 dollar gift card and it sure would be great to get my stuff installed using that, but I dont want a hack job.

Even though I don't shop at future shop for car audio or get stuff installed due to the prices, my local future shop does a great job installing.
Everything very clean, secure and solid.
Obviously it's different at each shop, but you can go in and ask to see some work they've done (probably their own cars).
I'm sure they'd do a great job.

Dont just go to any future shop, I used to work there, talk with the people who install first to see if they are suitable for a good instal

Go into your local Futureshop and talk with the installers and check there experience with some inteligent questions and rate them on there answers, you will know if you want them installing in your vehicle. and if oyu feel uncomfortable with them installing just buy something from the store and have installed elsewhere.

I have to agree. Some shops have a kickass install team and others may not be quite as talented. Always check out your installers, regardless of the shop.

Well Weston and I live in the same town, so I will take his word, but I will still go and talk to them.
