Default Do not have anything fitted at Car Electronics in Nottingham!!

A few weeks back I spent £500 having my door speakers replaced with JL Audio C2's. Car Electronics took £85.00 from me for dyno matting the doors and £125 labour charges for fitting.

After removing the door card today the find an annoying rattle I found the worst bodge job going! 3 screws barely holding the speaker in and no dyno matting at all!! So basically charged me over £200 to do a job that a 5 year old could have done! Not happy!! I've since been on the phone to them and conveyed my dissatisfation (to put it lightly)

Be aware!

Thats fraud mate mention trading standards as they have cherged you for dynamat and not fitted it, I used to work for a car audio shop and those prices seem excessive even if they did the work for sound deadening and fitting the speakers you should pay around £50 less than they ahave charged minimum

Well I thought i'd have them done properly so I could get the best sound from it but was very wrong. It's booked in for Wednesday morning and i'm gonna kick off when i get there. I want some money back for my inconvenience too!
