H3 Aftermarket Sound System
 So I took ol' Bam-Bam down to the local care stereo shop, and was met with a silver cross, and garlic, APPARENTLY no one in the shop will touch the H3 for installing and aftermarket DVD/NAV system with BU Cam, something about the factory stereo being the "Brain" for the cabin, and difficulty doing installs, but when I took it to Best Buy, the 17 yo kid couldnt wait to get it in the bay, my spider sense told me to just walk away when the local professional shop wouldnt touch it, but wonder boy wanted to dive in with both feet.... any input guys?

Re: H3 Aftermarket Sound System

Re: H3 Aftermarket Sound System
DO NOT TAKE TO BEST BUY!!!!!!!!!!!!! We at the dealership had to clean-up there mess-ups and they are wireing nightmares. They really know how to cut wires that should not be cut.

Re: H3 Aftermarket Sound System
There is a right way and and a wrong way of doing an aftermarket sound system. There is a buy-pass mod that need to be installed in you H3 for the system to work right, the radio needs to be able to comunicate with the on-star mod.

Re: H3 Aftermarket Sound System
I have a buddy here in conroe that runs a stero shop and his guys do the best work and know hummers inside out. I have 2 pair of seperates, one rockford 10, box, and two amps, one a alpine one a rockford. INSTALLED for 900.00!!! Its sounds great and NO issues. Its just a matter of find a shop that KNOWS how to work on them.
