DON'T get futureshop to install anything!!

I worked at best buy for a while, and future shop is the worst place ever.

I can't even count the number of times we had people coming into my install bay with stuff that future shop installed and brought it to us because it didn't work.

I'm talkin everything from decks, to amps, car alarm's, and remote starts.

They do it as quickly as possible to get you out the door and don't care about the quality of the workmanship.

I'd suggest either a custom car shop, or a best buy for your install.


I would think it's unfair to say Future Shop install sucks. Maybe your local Future Shop(s) don't do good work but that doesn't speak for all of them. The Peterborough Future Shop does unbelievable work and some pretty intense custom work.
