Alright I gotta vent lazy installers piss me off


Recommended Posts

So I am at work and I get a call from a customer and he tells me he had an alarm installed. I say "ok where did you have it done". He said "one of your other stores". Customer then tells me he has multiple problems with it and wants to bring it in. So as per policy I tell him that he should take it back to the store that did it. He says no way I'm doing that and wants to bring it to our store. I'm like ok I'll poke my head in it and take a look but if you want it fixed it may take a few days for me to get to it because we are very busy. So he brings it in and I take a look no led, no valet button in sight so I take off the under dash panel and I see both of them hanging. So I'm like alright let me see what I can feel so I reach my hand up under the dash and sure enough I feel the brain and the main harness. So I give it a small tug and it falls like a fat kid running a 12k marathon. I'm like wtf so I look under the hood and sure enough the siren is just chilling I pull it off of its resting spot with just my hand and no tools. Damn it all so now I have to redo the entire install and on top of that we had to fix his clutch because they managed to break something on that. I just cant believe that someone would do that poor of a job and let it leave. I freaking wish I had pics. Oh the ign and starter wire were run to same place wtf. Just had to get that off my chest.

. Oh the ign and starter wire were run to same place wtf.

I had a friends install hooked up same way. His car was f*cking up

as soon as I saw the wires I said same exact thing WTF? I swapped

the wires and told him to never go back to that place again. Just sucks

because I already knew the shop was crap he just didnt tell me he

was getting an alarm till the aftermath so it was to late to send

him to my homeboys shop. He got raped on the price to

they charged him 600 for autopage 727 remote start he was

pissed when I showed him my price for alarm and module. 205 and the install

for 100 bucks. Lazy installers or installers in over there head shouldn't be installing.

Sucks you gotta rip it all out and reinstall but a cluster fuck just aint worth dealing

with I feel your pain man. Good luck getting it back in.

get those other fuckers fired.

If I answered you in a well mannered, informative way, you asked a good question or had a good attitude. If I was an asshole, you asked a stupid question or you had a fucktard attitude... or I was in a bad mood.

Not to start a massive fire under this one but it's not unheard of for dodgy installers to do stuff like that so they can rip the car off later...

not under my train of thought but the only thing in it was a jensen in dash everthing else pretty much stock oh by the way forgot to mention its an 97 honda del sol

Yeah the shop my buddy had his sh*t installed at was

well known for that about 2 years ago thats when I

got away from them. And yeah if theres any way to

keep track of who does what install they should be

held accountable for there sh*t installs. They have

no problem showing off there installs that go well.

Edit his car has 2 12" L7s a zx1500 hifonics mid amp

and avic d2. Well worth it to those losers but in Dallas

they just take the ride woulda got his 20s at the same time.

Bitches.
