    Does anyone have any recommendations for a stereo shop in the LA/Pasadena area? I want to get a Kenwood 8120 in dash nav, but don't have the time to install it myself... and by "don't have the time" I mean "have no clue how to" even if I had the time. :D TIA...

    My good friend has his own shop and usually works on high end stuff but if you tell him I sent you he will hook you up. His name is Carlos and his company is on the web at http://www.soundmasterautosound.com
    Tell him that Kenneth recommended you.
    Don't sway away from the work he has done. He does from mild to wild but does it right. He used to be a sound engineer and does top notch work. The shop is in Burbank now. I would not go anywhere else...
    Good luck
