I took the advice that these guys were the best in my local area. Well the price was high as expected but...

I used the factory radio and upgraded the rest. When Nick called me to say it was done he worked me over to upgrade the stereo. Said the stock Clarion was limited in it's range, distortion up high, blah blah. So I got upsold to an Alpine. Supposedly they have better radio reception, whatever. They put the radio in and bang, crap reception. I tell them about it and they can't find a problem. Still no radio stations. Take it down again and they say that I need an antenna added on. Finally they put the stock radio back in. What a waste of time. I thought Nick knew our cars. :confused:

I just came across this and it might help you out.

I'll have to let "Mr. Subaru expert" Nick in on this thread.

P.S. Sorry for the wrong thread section. :rolleyes:

In my experience, most Magnolia locations suck at install. I would never let one of them touch my car ever again. They broke so much stuff in my 4runner.... :mad:
