Sometimes I hate stereo shops

I like it when you go somewhere to get something and you get the wrong part. I was getting my wiring harness to put in my radio and he says yea we have one. I forgot to take the pic with me or look at it before hand. He comes out with one and it says to 1994. I said hey this says to 94 only want me to get the book. I said no if you said it works it works. I get home get the radio all out and come to find out its not the right one. I hate that. Makes you wonder how much they really dont know. Now im gonna have to wait to install my stereo becuase of that idiot that cant read and wont listen to me.

Thanks for letting me vent.

there are two mitsubishi radio harnesses. one for up to 1994 (it is two white plugs) and one for 1994 and up which is one black plug. anyone that works in a competant shop should know that and if my guys didn't, they'd be gone.

Yup qualified shops are worth paying the extra couple bucks for people who really know what they are doing... I have had really good luck with Car toys

Good shops are worth it, even if you pay a little more money, you get so much better customer service and knowledge!!! When I first got into car audio, I had that happen as well, there is nothing worse than having and audio project waiting for the right parts!
