Last week, a HUGE speeding ticket ("...but officer, the M3 started it!") spurred me into buying a Valentine One. I was planning to get it hard-wired when I upgrade my stereo, but that's weeks away (at best) and the wire is driving me crazy.

Can you guys suggest some top-notch car audio shops in the Boston area that you've had good experiences with?

Thanks.

 

What for....to hardwire?

Yeah, I saw the DIY guide on S2000.org, but I'm not what you would call handy. I know it's pathetic (my father is surely rolling over in his grave), but I love my car too much to subject it to my chaotic tinkering.

I'm also planning to replace the crappy stock stereo, which is why I'm looking for a reputable place that does good work.

 

If you want to come down to my place or meet somewhere, I will do it for nothing.

Here's my V1 resume:

washing and waxing your s2k is harder than hardwiring your V1- come to the next meet either the pirate party or the next dinner meet and one of us will do it for you as it take about 5 minutes at most

the s comes from the factory with three extra 12v ports - this makes it very easy

 

Where do you live as I would also be more than happy to help you wire your V1. I can help with the Stereo install also, and my time is also free.

 

you just received two offers from the two New England electronic WIZARDS to help for free can't beat that with a stick

 

Hard-wiring a detector is a piece of cake in this car.

I did it following that write-up above and was done in about 10 minutes. Didn't even take 2 beers to do!

 

3 extra 12V ports? You got me all excited for a minute until I realized those must be the ones under the dash on the fuse box.
