Default custom autosound install

Has anyone installed Custom Autosound radios? I am looking at USA-230 with front and rear speakers as the stock radio in my 68 does not work. What's involved in installing? Is this something I can also take to places where they install auto sound systems?

Camaro 69, do you know any good places in the burbs?

Thanks

Also if anyone had it installed by a shop, I'd appreciate if you could give me an idea on the cost. Thanks.

hdrocks - I just installed an Autosound USA-230 in my 1967 camaro. The install was straight forward and pretty easy. You will need to remove the ash tray, that aluminum plate that covers the radio, heater controls and ash tray, and loosen the heater controls, but it is all straight forward with just a few screws. The biggest issue I had was attaching the strap brace, as it did not seem to line up with any obvious attach spot behind the dash. Ended up just modifying the strap a little. I would also recommend buying a new 6x9 speaker from Autosound that is a direct replacement for the one in the center top of the dash. It provides pretty good sound and is an easy install with the radio out.
