I just bought a new vehicle, and I'm in the quandary of needing some essential chasing gear in there, and yet not wanting to drill or otherwise damage stuff in the process.
I can install things myself and get them functional, but I'm not the best with aesthetics. I wondered if anyone has approached a professional stereo/alarm/etc place to have them install chasing gear. My thinking is that they have all of the right materials, brackets, wiring and components to make things work properly and look good.
I'd like to get an inverter system hardwired in with a fuse and a dash switch, with nothing visible but the switch and 110v plug outlets mounted flush somewhere. I figure a pro can do that in a couple of hours, whereas it would take me all day (and I'd probably break something trying to do it). If it was an old car I'd had for years, I wouldn't care, I'd just do it myself. But a new one is a different story.
Wondered if anyone has had this type of thing done, and how much it cost. I just had an alarm put in for under $250, and figured something like an inverter system shouldn't be too much more than that (especially if I already have the components).
