JVC Exad AVX1 Head Unit
Sirius Tuner for said HU

Anyone know where I can get those DF210's installed in ATX or know someone who would be willing to supervise me or just flat out install them for me?

Nice!! I wish Santa had been as kind to me, but I usually make his "Naughty" list by the end of January! LOL
As for the DF210 install, if you can't find anyone to help you drop the box locally in ATX, I can help you if you are willing to come to H-Town.

I actually have a friend that runs NTB in Tomball, which is only a few miles from my house. He can have his guys do an alignment for real cheap.
If you do decide to give the DF210 install a shot, do yourself a favor and rent a spring compressor from Auto Zone or O'Reilley. It doesn't cost much at all, and it makes the removal and installation of the springs on the struts MUCH easier.
It is best to let the springs settle for a week or so before you have the alignment corrected. The initial drop after installation is about 95% of the final drop, but the car will drop another 5% more over the next few days as the springs settle into use. Having the alignment done after the springs settle will ensure the alignment is as close to perfect as possible. If you would like my help, let me know. I'd be more than glad to help you drop the box.

Thanks again for the offer of help...I might still take you up on it if I get too busy this weekend with the other install stuff...I won't know until I get into it (150 sf of eDead is gonna take awhile)...I've read the DIY on springs about 20 times now and I feel confident I can get it done...but I'll take your advice and get the compressor...I'll let you know this weekend or early next week if I got done or not and if not then maybe we can set something up...I'll let you know
