I was hanging out with Adam at SEMA last night, and let me tell ya, if you haven't seen his new rail, it's unbelievable on just about every level imaginable. Full system with DVD and monitors in it, so you can watch your favorite movies while duning, plus a twin turbo LS-7 Chevy pushing around 900 or so horsies making her move.
Now if he could just keep the black rubber side down. :D :D :D
Oh and Tom, he said he's ready to do the stereo on your Sea Ray anytime you are. :D :D :D

The ones I have aren't the best as it was getting dark fast by the time we made it outside to drool over the boats.
However, I did find these in another thread:

Is Eliminator going to be putting stereos in ALL of their boats or are you just doing their "factory installed" stuff?
Congrats on the 2nd year in a row, Darren was also nominated last year.

Where is Car Toys located?
Also, how does one get nominated and how do they ranked, what is the criteria for judging? Not to lessen the list, but several of my departments are part of associations like the above, and it sometimes can come down to how much you invest into the association and how good your letter writing campaign skills are to get on the list versus actually monitoring, reviewing, compairing and objectively ranking your work against others....In our field we have ranked number #1 in the Nation for a number of years, and I got the feeling it was due to the story we could tell...just wondering how the installer list gets compiled...

And no offense, but how can someone from Best Buy be on the list? That's like Audio Express (don't know if you guys have those in Cali, but they do $0.99 installations on refurb equipment) making the list of top installers... :idea:

That and a couple others made me question the integrity of the list....a couple on the list I say like Yato should be there, but just never saw a high number of great installs coming from Best Buy...

Manufactureres nominate installers then the installer must submit a portfolio of work to be examined by the magazine. After that, industry members vote (the list starts off at 50) then its narrowed down to 12. Then once again it is judged by members of the magazine and the top guy is nominated. The judging is not only based on fabrication skills but installations as a whole. fiberglass and paint will not get you nominated. you must be able to show skills in the entire field of installations.

Pacific northwest they are all over. They are actually the largest independant car audio retailer in the US. Like AL&Eds but bigger.
