i got about all tools u need for car audio work ecept a rta lol

[bigmescan]

it will take about 3-5 days to install it and then when you get it in your never happy so you are never finished installing.IMO

I take forever on anything I install except head units. It seems like anything else that should take a short amount of time ends up taking HOURS.

hell itde probly take me 4 days to a week. depending on the car and how focused i was. big job no doubt!!

As stated already,it really depends on the vehicle,available parts,time after working a full time job,etc.For me,by myself,a full blown system like this would take a couple months,or more,simply b/c i'm either too tired after work,or don't have quite all the parts on hand,or more so,nothing just "drops" right in.An hr a night here or there until it's done.And of course everything has to be "custom" mount this or "have to fabricate that" type of situation.

Edit:

I read the thread wrong...i was taking into account having to build a box,tint the windows,installing remote start and alarm,and then everything else that was mentioned earlier.Either way,it takes time.No need to rush it.

if i stop n take pics it will take me a month to do something i can in a day, i dont take breaks, i take some bottles of water outside wit me and some coolade packets and i get to work, doesnt matter how hot it is or not, i still do it cause i love me bass

4 hrs is what it took to do da burban door speakers

to squeeze my hu and eq in the same hole another 4

ran wires 1hr

secondary batts 2 hrs

now gettin the box in the burban is hard since the box weighs more than me and subs half my weight bout 3 hrs = 14 hrs

not to bad if i may say!!

I would say about 2-3 days based on what you have listed. Maybe a tad longer because I would not be familiar with the car. More like a full day if I am real familiar with the car like I am with Ford products
