Default anyone have an idea how much it would cost me ?

I just about have given up (from fear of skrewing up my car) gutting my scion tc and installing everything. So, does anyone have any idea how much (average) would cost me to get 1 headunit,2 amps, 1 set of 6.5 components, 1 sub, and 120' of edead installed? also anyone know a good installer in the claremont, pomona, riverside, upland, san bernardino, or chino/chino hills area of california?

Why have you given up, the scion is the easiest car to take apart, and there is even a how-to on this site. To get that done you are looking 50 labor on headunit, about 75 for each amp, 50 for the speakers, 50 for the sub, and the sound deadener could be roughly 200 or so because of the time involved.

That much sound deadener's gonna cost you some dollars. I usually get about $3 per foot.

Do the sound deadener yourself, and really it took me 20 mins to put in the headunit....

Elemental Designs has some good sound deadening material. I did my xB in it and it was so easy to install.

eDead v1 $1 sq ft. and
eDead v1 SE $1.50 sq ft. and the stuff works great.

hehe...he already bought everything(eDead included) he's just a bit worried now that the install is over his head.

Understandable if you've never done it before. Luckily I had a Neon first...and well...was never afraid to do ANYTHING to it
