Guys,

Since official representation of ICE sytem manufctures are not widespread in India and at times there is no official representation in india. Car Audio shopkeepers and installers tend to rip you off, and you end up with un-satisfying system while u've paid up for something that would be rocking ur whole neighbourhood. Cheating, high pricing, Fake goods and bad installation is common here.

i was just thinking if TBHP members could just post the prices and quotes we've got our ICE systems for. And TBHP audio gurus and ppl who have contacts in the market could give us latest and authentic prices for ICE components thus creating a reference pricelist as guide to buy components.

Cheers
