Thanks all for the feedback! Two questions:

#1) How much would Maruti charge for an install?
#2) If I want to install components such that the tweeters are to be fitted by cutting a hole in the door panel, will they do that?

Buying outside, and having Maruti fit it for me suits me perfectly, especially since all the other accessories are MGA, and thus I would like to keep the car in a place where if something is to happen to the car, Maruti is responsible in totality and can't pass the buck to others.

Remember to use protection.
The "wiring harness" that you mention; is it the same thing that the Maruti guys are referring to when they say "coupling wires / couplers?" That is their main beef with 3rd party installs, in that they say that the couplers are only available from Maruti, and only if you buy the ICE from them (i.e. they won't sell it separately). So they claim that non-Maruti installers would just cut the couplers off, and tie the wires together, and that voids the warranty.
