Anyone know an installer (audio/video) on the Eastside?

Looking for an independent and not a shop. I have a great installer but he's in Seattle so I was looking for an alternative on this side of the Lake. Need my Blinder M27 installed.

Benchmark Motoring without question. All the rest are garbage.

Anyone know Benchmark's hourly rate? I already have the equipment.

Last time I went there to try to get a sub connected and they said they just couldn't do that and needed to do everything to my car which they quoted me $10-15k for.

They will definitely balk at that as will every other shop (usually) because they do want to be the one that sells you the equipment. From past experience, they'll just say that they won't be able to "warranty" the labor the removal of these equipment that you provide for repairwork, etc. You'd have to pay them to remove the equipment afterwards for repairs and such, etc. This would be statistically rare though.

I don't remember what their hourly rates were though. It might have changed since the last time I used them.

Magnolia Hi Fi......Oh wait.....they are out of car/audio

so I guess Benchmark

$65 per hour but they don't like installing others equipment. Simply stated they can't stand behind work if the products they install are not covered by them.

Just got my car back from Benchmark Motoring today after installing the 9500ci. They did an amazing job! Very professional service too!
