Hey guys - I'm going to admit I got this forum off google but I didn't want my photos to go to waste :P I work at a Future Shop in BC and one of the car install guys did up a jack-o-lantern for Halloween. And yes - we sold all those parts after they were installed in a real pumpkin.




The world's most edible sub box



It was fully functional and didn't sound half bad, but something about sticking a live, working car deck into a damp, freshly carved pumpkin seems like a bad idea.
A mushy pumpkin's a good sub dampner.

When i had a shiity install done at fs it was like oh theres good installers and badsibility......
Now you guys so far think this is cool to comprimise products and them sell them to some poor custumer?
IMO future shop needs to take more responsability as to who they hire and pay them accordingly.1 out of every 10 installers they have there have somewhat of a brain!

lol. I think he was saying that 1 out of 10 installers at fs have a brain, meaning 9/10 installers at FS are retarded.

You don't happen to be an installer at fs, do you?
