I'll let you know of a guy later today if you want, he's putting in 2 tv's in my 99 TL this week. Supposed to be real good and he's affordable since he does it from his house. Pictures that I have seen of his installs were really nicely done, and if I had the money he would be doing it. So just let me know.

He's located in Marrietta btw.

Call this guy Raj at 678-520-3328.

Tell him Bejal with the TL sent you, I think he will be your best bet for a nice system at a good price.

One of my college boy's from GaTech is opening a shop up in Gwinnett as we speak...its right off Sugarloaf Pkwy, he's def. got experience (used to compete in SPL competitions with 56 10"s in a Pathfinder) and is getting connected to a Panoz/motorcycle dealership to create a big sales/mod type center. If you're interested, I'll give him a call this week and find out where their exact location is and contact info if you PM me. For mods, I heard Modhavi Motorsports is pretty good for engine swaps, suspension, etc etc.

Yea, Mahdavi is good at what they do and pretty reasonably priced. I had them install my catback for $50 (took them 15 minutes); had them do my springs/shocks for $175. Here's their #: 770-923-1550

That's weird that they charged $100 more for the TL. But $140 is awesome, I wish i knew of these guys before. Could probably have them install sways for me in the future.

By the way, I live in midtown, by piedmont park

Where are you located and what parts excluding the stereo are you wanting to install. I'm normally reasonably priced at a 12 pack or case depending on the size of the job...

Damn, I wish I worked there, I would then be able to walk to work in approximately 58 seconds!!! Instead I have to drive to dunwoody, which is about a 25 min. drive, but a 58 second walk would be cooler.

I might be interested. I need to install a head unit, 4 channel amp, front comp 6 1/2s, and rear 6x9s. I was going to get hifi buys to do it, but they wanted $300 alone just to install the head unit b/c of the kit that has to be built!!!!

Re-read my post, I stated 'excluding the stereo', meaning all stereo equipment, sorry... I'll work on my own stereo stuff but not others.

But if it comes to engine or even some suspension mods I have no problem lending a hand.

28 miles one way in Atlanta traffic =

Got a guy at work that drives 40 each way from jonesboro to dunwoody, not that blows. Mine's not bad 10 miles and I don't have to take 85/75/285!!!!! Just 400 for a second.

Are going to that meet on the 20th? That would be pretty far for you since it is around the jonesboro area.

I'm going to try and go, but I'm not to sure how to get there. I guess I would be coming 85 south.

The number of miles really does suck. I bought my car in October of 2001 with 6 miles on it, and I will hit 21,000 this week!!!! Oh well, when I get my corvett, my CL will be my beater car. haha

What did you have installed? If you don't mind me asking, how much did they charge you for the install? I really want them to do my car, but I can't see $300 to install a deck.

Place is called Extreme Window Tinting in Lawrenceville (678-985-9220). They have done my old car (Grand Prix GTP 20% all around for $210), my CLS (35% all around for I think $150) and they have done my fiancees mustang (20% all around, but I'm not sure what she paid). We have been very happy with them and their prices seem to be very reasonable.

I'll suggest this to you: do not have random thugs that have a metal shack set up in the parking lot of a texaco gas station down moreland, past I-20, do your window tinting. Both my door windows are starting to peel a bit.

Does anybody know a person in Atlanta that could do an engine swap to an H22 on my car for a reasonable price. Mahdavi motorsports was charging $1100 in labor which is too much.

I got charged 300 bucks also, but that included a box, wires, and LOC. I got 2-12 image dynamic IDQ's installed, 1 Kicker ZR240 and a 1 farad capaciator. They mounted everything on the back of my box, which looked to be very solidly built.

I bought the zr240 amp ($170), 2-12 image dynamics subs ($150 for both), and cap ($70) on ebay. The rest they did for 300 bucks. So my total cost was $590.
