I'm from the SJ area, so anyone know of any fair priced trustworthy installers in the southbay area?

Just some components in my 528i...I been doing my install slowly by myself, but its been real ghetto...lol
I've drove by there before, but never went inside. It looks to be a very nice store from the outside, I mean nice too...Custom Auto in Oakland (near the airport) is probably the top place in the Bay Area. They've been around since 1980 and have a lot of high profile clients. I've had 5 high end systems installed over the last 18 years.
I'm taking my '07 G35 couple there in a couple weeks to install a complete system and do window tinting.

its a '97...so far i've replaced the head unit, ran two RCAs under the center console, and put in my amp/sub...and i gotta say it's pretty ghetto. i haven't had the time to figure out how to get the RCAs under the carpet so theyr'e coming out of the slot where the rear cupholders used to be and going under and behind my seats and through the skipass hole intoo the trunk.It can't be that ghetto LOL, well that's good that you're taking a stab on it. What do you have left to do?
The 5 series are normally amplified with the amp in trunk. Did you get the stock deck replaced? Getting a full range out of the stock speaker leads might pose problems if you're using the passives from the aftermarket components. What year is your ride?
