I have some computer repair and basic electronic education from a trade school. Would I need to pay an audio tech (geek squad, etc.) to install?

Nope the wiring is set up so its able to be done by anybody who buys it. Depending on your car it should only take between half an hour or several hours to install by yourself.

No. Easy to install. If you can solder and/or use butt connectors you will be fine. Try to get a printout of your vehicles radio witing harness pinout.

It is very easy and straight forward to install this. Takes about an hour to install

No you just need a wiring harness for your vehicle whitch you can get at best buy. Ask electronic section they have to get them for you. Other than that you need to tie red with red greens and greens. Just match colors nothing hard

Absolutely not! All wires are very clearly labeled, just get the necessary harness for your car and some butt connectors unless you want to solder the wires (I did). The whole process took less than 2 hours and was painless. Running the microphone cable under the trim was the most difficult and annoying part.

No the wires are color coded why pay the geek a 100 bucks for something u can do your self u feel just follow the instructions

The tools are included, the instructions are available on YouTube not included with item. It is time consuming to install but if you are experienced with working on small sensitive electronics it should not be too difficult; it gets a bit frustrating at times working with the tiny screws so give yourself some time and be patient also take a break halfway through and you should be fine...good luck! &#128522;

You'll need video editing software that will allow you to import audio. Most will do this, but make sure before you buy. As for price, you could spend a little or you could spend a lot depending on your expertise.

I took it to a stereo shop By my house and they only charged me $60 to install it. I'm not too good with electronics especially in a a car LOL

The fast answer is yes. You'll obviously need an adapter and then a program (Garage Band, perhaps)

im leaning towards a "NO" i actually installed them for a client and im inable to confirm with them right now. however thers is a chat on tbe amped site where you can link a tech and he/she will confirm for u

You wont need one if you have a technician come out....otherwise....you only need one.

I would have the CD handy. I found that I had to use the CD for the software install. Thanks.

IMHO, a PC tech only needs a 10 dollar DMM, really! Everything is digital, either you got 3.5/5 volts or you don't, and nobody troubleshoot these things at the component level, we just swap stuff.

The installer should provide the kit (they did for us). Ask them to verify. It's an inexpensive item.

I would not try to install this yourself if you don't have experience or expertise of any kind in this field. This is a bit more involved than setting up a home theater system or solar lights and such. Go to a professional who does this for a living and you'll save time, money and stress.

I had a professional come and install in my absence, he had to cut a box behind the TV in the wall for $K converter and he fixed it with a mount he suggested, also I had a sound bar installed just below the screen. I wish I had run an Ethernet wire from my router, even though I mage to trouble shoot wireless connection by using the Media part the WIFI spectrum at 5K htz.

I got them together and dont remember having had to make an extra payment for the software, so i guess the short answer is no but in the other hand is not bad news because it comes included, meaning there is no extra charge. best.

I believe that you can. Just download and install the software from the manufacturer's web site instead of using the CD that come packaged with the product.

Pay an installer. $300-$500. It's worth it to me. But I guess it depends on how much time you have on your hands.
