I agree. The one time I let a shop install a radio I bought from them it came out absolutely terrible. They offered 'free' installation with purchase. I was sorry I took them on the offer. Poor wiring, loose mounting and they put a big scratch in the detachable face and claimed I did it when I took delivery and pointed it out to them even though I barely touched it yet. I ended up redoing it all myself anyway. Put a sour taste in my mouth also as this was the nicer shop in the area. Anyway I learned from that lesson when I was 16 to never let someone else do the install unless you can stand sloppy half @$$ work. I'm sure there are some good shops out there and this might have been an isolated incident, but I prefer knowing its done correct by doing it myself.
