Ok so I am in a bit of a jam. I recently bought a nice new Pioneer MP3 CD deck for my car which cost ~300 shipped off ebay. Fast forward to today when I went to Bestbuy to have it installed. The estimate came out to $179+tax which includes labor and a lifetime waranty on the labor. So all together it would be roughly $500.
But I didn't have enough cash for the install (I only had $100).
The guy there said that he could sell me the parts for $100 and save me the $79 on the labor, but I hardly know anything when it comes to car audio and could potential damage my deck and/or car.
So I had to go home and get some more which made me think...
$500 is a lot of money for me. I get about $225/week from my job (I'm 17 y/o) and I already have a ton of money saved up in the bank so I could spare the money for the whole thing (then again $500 is a lot).
But do I really need the new deck? My current stereo is already pretty decent (as it has 6 speakers, amp, cd changer)...
What would you do.
