Car Audio Help

I went to Circuit City to have them install a head unit I was going to get and I asked how much it would be. He said that the kit would be $55 and that I would also have to pay $90 for them to rewire it because I had a factory amp that wouldn't support aftermarket radios. They guy said "all Camaro's have them" which sounded like a bunch of crap. When I checked at Best Buy the guy just said I need the GM Kit and probably an antenna adapter. He said nothing about rewiring. What is the truth, do I have an amp or not?? Its an 88 Camaro 305 TBI with the ERS system in it.

Re: Car Audio Help

sounds like a bunch of BS to me, the people at circuit city will tell you anything just to make money. do it yourself, headunits are the easiest thing to install. all you need is the dash kit and a bunch of crimpers. the dash kit includes instructions and to wire the headunit just take the stock wiring out and cut them off at the back of the stock unit. then you match the colors and crimp them down with something like pliers. then you plug it all back in and turn it on...

Yea thats what I was thinking as well. Since Best Buy does it for free I was just gonna have them do it. They didn't give me any BS about it. Thanks.
