Best place to have boat sound system installed in So Cal??
I'm looking for a shop to install a system in my boat, thought some of you might be able to point me in the right direction to get a quality job done. Thanks in advance

Make sure that when they do the installation that they use exclusivly stainless steel screws and bolts. I like to bolt in the speakers with fender washers and nyloc nuts to make sure that they never loosen. Some places I have seen use wood screws and they will loosen over time (think rubrails). You would not beleive how many boats I have seen with steel or even sheetrock scews holding speakers and amps in. I also try and use cushion clamps to hold the wire harnesses in place.

I used to fly out there once a month and visit the now wife. So I would try and line up some work out there so it would always be a business write off for me. I would just ask the guys to cover the costs so it was a win win for everyone.
Maybe a trip is in order, my back is feeling really good as of late and Tank is the best at fixing that!
