i wish my memory was better at times...I remember seeing here a link for circuit city installation for 149 bucks i think (or 199)...it's still better than 350 i was charged here in LA

 

i dont think i wanna spend more than a couple of hundred bucks for the install...i may even do it myself, so i was wondering what's the cheapest price for an installation?

 

thanks

I took my car to Circuit City here in MA, and they quoted me 225 for nav, 50 for bluetooth, and 50 for sirius.

Tweeter quoted me $450...totally insane.

 

They all charge alot for the install. I've decided to do the install myself next weekend.

what i dont get is why they would charge me for the sirius and the bluetooth, they are just plug and play....i guess they would charge me another 50 bucks for the ipod wire?

i will go to them with the ipod wire, sirius module and bluetooth already installed on the D3....and then tell them PLEASE INSTALL JUST MY D3, since all the accessories are already attached :)

good one...

Let me know what they say.

 

They basically charge for plug and play and to install the bluetooth & sirius boxes. CC said they wont charge for ipod cable. big savings!!!

i dunno, that's why i'm asking you guys if you have seen it before

 

i will go today to CC with a printout of this offer and see what they say

I'll do the same...I'll let you know what they say.

Also, if you can check them the price for Bluetooth kit & sirius radio installations? Let see if their prices are consistent.

You can buy a 10% off coupon for Circuit City on ebay as well...and you can buy the install online (use the coupon code)...

 

I was going to do exactly as I said above...

 

But I ended up paying $0 for installation (did it myself) wasn't too hard...just took me 2 days to get everything I needed in order and put in correctly.

Can you please post the link to that coupon which you are talking about?

Thanks.

I thing that this stereo can be easily installed by just hooking up the essentials, or you can also install like the velocity sensor,rpm and all this other crap. Are those high prices including the full full install and the harness with the cage and trim?

How about 0. You can't get any cheaper than that.

CC coupons on ebay

Take your pick!

 

Just be sure to read the auctions and make sure they are usable online! Check the sellers feedback rating and make sure people are happy with the transactions. Usually these coupons cost $1-$2 each - but can save you quite a bit - depending on the purchase price. Again, be sure to read the auction carefully and note any restrictions that the coupon has.

I went to CC a while ago. I took all the stuff with me: avic-d3, btb-100, sirius, harness, wiring, installation kit, etc.

I also printed out the nav install for $159.99 from their website (http://www.circuitcity.com/ccd/productDetail.do?oid=163719&catOid=-16705&c=1&cm_re=firedog%20services-_-Roadshop-_-see%20details).

 

This is the quote I got from the CC guy:

 

- AVIC-D3 Nav install - $159.99

- Bluetooth kit install - $65.99

- Sirius Radio install - $49.99

- Ipod cable install to golve compt. - $16.99

 

I'm getting it installed this Sunday.

$130 to plug in a few cables? No offense, but geez.......

Do you know if the coupon is valid for installations?

No way I'm buying from ebay...googled it and found it in 5-10 mins. I'm attaching the coupon ($40 off $199 or more) in pdf. Enjoy!

Just a warning: Supposedly that coupon has been DENIED by a ton of CC's because they have a note on the back wall somewhere telling the cashiers not to accept that one.

 

I read this on slickdeals.net a week or so ago...lots of folks saying that the coupon was denied.

 

Just letting you know....

Thanks for the heads up.

I'll give it a shot anyways...i have nothing to lose, and 40 bucks to save! :)
