Just wondering how many professional installers there are floating around on this board?

15 yrs custom audio and security. Just quit Circuit City after 4 awesome yrs. ROADSHOP!!!!

Three years at Circuit in the Roadshop!!!!!! FUN FUN FUN

Yeah I must admit after having worked for both boxes now. I am having much more fun at cc than I ever did at bb

If you dont mind me asking what kind of money does cc pay?

Best Buy for nearly two years.

Speed and Truck World in Ft. Lauderdale for over 3 years, now, been a professional installer for 19 years, City Radio, Brandsmart, Sound Advice, Traffic Jams, Florida Tint and Tunes, and a couple other places I don't remember.....in Mobile Electronics Magazine's list of Top 100 installers in the US for 3 consecutive years, now.

13 years in custom car audio and electronics. MECP cerified back in 1996. Last employer was 3 yrs at Car Toys (West Coast). The only installs I do anymore are my own. I went back to school and got my Journeyman Limited Energy Electricians license and I now work in the Professional Audio/Video industry on the commercial side.

Circuit City for over 8 years with a 50/50 split of sales and install.


**edit**
Just got "laid off" because I made too much money. What kind of country is this when $15.25 an hour is too much. I did ok but not exactly raking in the cash. Oh well off to something better I suppose.

15 years, 13 of them in my own business

Have now opened my own business, doing marine, small watercraft(yes, stereos in Waverunners), scooters, golf carts and the like. Lots of fun......yay, me. :D

Yay you!! Good luck hope it all works out for ya.

Adding up the years makes me feel old.

I've been doing it for almost 18 years now.

July 7th will make 20 for me.

Dude I don't know sh*t, I'm just good at faking it :wink: I've seriously read every possible website, magazine, and book about car audio. Then I have to admit working for a box store, I get to see pretty much the whole spectrum of cars. Funny stuff sometimes too.
