Thumbs down MobileWest PDX car stereo - HORRID

FYI for those out here in Portland,OR

BEWARE of the quality of workmanship etc at this place.
I had my brand new car there for a rather simple installation project and they managed to screw things up so badly. I had my car in there more than 3 occasions for install malfunctions (nothing ever worked, sub off, front channel fading out, severe engine noise etc) and when i finally picked up my car they had an aftermarket HU installed cause they claimed mine was faulty. After a long battle and 3 weeks, i finally got my HU installed and they delivered my car to me once again without a working stereo!

Took my car to Musicar NW (http://musicarnw.com/index.html) and they couldnt believe the mess! Missing screws in my dash, broken center console, glue gunned speaker install, misc wires, sub hooked up to R channel with no low end Hz available, torn weather seal in doors...it goes on from there. Thankfully these guys no there shit and are perfectionist.

So buyer BEWARE...do NOT go there

good news is..Tom and Ken have made my car F'n perfect and it sounds soooooo good!!!

That's horrible man!!!!! Glad you got it all sorted out with a company that you like in the end though. Sorry to hear you had to go through that, I might have killed someone.
