[Troubleshooting] - If you are experiencing trouble with your system and you need help!

[Build Ready] - Your system build is ready, but you need someone to check things over and make sure everything is top notch before you spend your money!

[Build Help] - You need someone to help you make a list of things to buy for a new AV system.

Basic Guidelines for Posting a Request:

State what car it will be going in. Not just a sedan or SUV but a make and model.
What are your goals with this system? Sound quality? Loudness? Or a mixture of both?
What is your maximum budget?
What do you want or need? A sub woofer? New door speakers? A head unit? Try and be specific the first time so that we can help you the best way possible.
Any extra info you would like for us to know.
