We just got the12volt.com authorized in our bay and would like to say hello to everyone. Looks like there alot of helpful people and advice on the forums. We look forward to contributing to the site and knocking out any bad reps about the install dept ;). Can't say the same for the sales dept. as it looks like alot of you found that out the hard way hehe.

One thing i realized after being on this site is that. The members of this site aren't really competitors. Sure we all want business but we all offer help to each other. So I extend me hand and say welcome aboard.

Wecome. I like Fry's. When I need electronic equipment, that's my favorite place to go. Unfortunately, I moved here to the central valley so it's a good 45 minute drive to get to the one in Fremont, and an hour for Sacramento so I have to deal with Radio Shack in town.

Ya unfortunately alot of people haven't heard of Fry's because we only advertise in the newspaper (L.A. Times). Currently we have 28 stores open. We may be installing home audio soon but we're just throwing the idea around. Anyone out there installing both at the company they work at? Would like to hear some feedback on it. posted_image

Well I can't say who the best in Cali is, but our install bay leaves a lot to be desired. posted_image

frys just don't appreciate us because we are hardly a contributer to its growth. but i love my job any how. i just passed my basic last week, after almost a year of ignoring it. my co-workers are still lacking. remote start sucks to. but i'm pimping on flip down screens.

Ditto on not being busy and underappreciated. posted_image

Remote start rocks, amps suck.
