Audio install

Hey folks...

I know it's a lot to ask but due to current issues I can't afford to have another professional install done.

I need to reinstall my system. The guy I paid $600 last time jacked EVERYTHING up so I want to do it right this time and do it myself... with help. I don't have the knowledge but I'll get in there and do whatever I'm told to do.

Basically I need to do this....

Install and F700bt with the bypass. I have a pioneer harnass. The douche that did my car last time cut a bunch of stuff so some wires will need to be repaired.

6.5 seps are installed already. I'd like to install some 5.25 seps in the rear doors. I have adapters. At the least I'd like the mids back there.

RCA's are run but I'd like to clean that up.
Basically like to rewire everything.

2 amps and 1 sub. The box is almost done. It's a lot of work and it's a lot to ask but is anyone down to help a guy out? I'll buy beer, soda, food and drive to anyone's house.

I'd like to do it before BAM.

My caddy motor is going back together any day now. I finished the valley pan the other night. Gonna do the valve covers today. Got some washers. Just need a torque wrench and it's good to go.

I have a F90BT that is already installed. We can mimic my set up that was done by a professional and done RIGHT.
PM if you want.

I have the by pass done a little different and I only have speakers all the way around. no sub or amp as of yet.

Hey Ray, let me know if you need my help. I was in the same boat when I first got my car, no one would help, so I just ended up doing it myself. It took me a long time, but I ran wire, crimped, soldered, etc, all solo.

Good thing you're a nurse. You'll know what to do when you hurt your shoulder from patting your back so hard.

You're right you did do your stereo. Nothing's melted yet. You have to admit that it's not as hard as one might make it. "There's certain rules to everything. Follow them and you'll be alright."
