Top work.

I only got the parts from them, and fitted it myself. They have done work for me in the past on other cars, and they did comlpete door builds and installed everything from scratch. Price is dependant on the work u want doing to be honest
They did supply the Alpine kit I have at the moment in the first place too.

yeah I heard that too, along with Subsonics out at Totton.
Mate knows the owner of Southside, but not sure about them. Having just spent a fortune on a newer car, I don't want a muppet to knacker the stereo area etc.

Heard a number of friends mention that place too. What work have they done for you?
you need maiming if you can't connect up a wiring harness & press in a couple of tabs on the shell.

Installed a Sony mini amp and pioneer front speakers in my previous mk3 ibiza.
Also gave me recommendations on what else would make it sound better (and not just louder)
Seem to know their stuff.

Not sure what the Leon's are like for that, but if it was a Mk3 and a front set of Components I recon the non-practical person would be in all sorts of trouble :(

Could always name drop ;) - the manager ED is good friends with the Sales manager at Kings Southampton ... Vic, say Vic put you in touch ... got nothing to lose ;)
Interesting point ;) as I'm at Kings Seat southampton on Saturday. Although the car was bought from Kings Portsmouth.

When I spoke to Ed at Sextons, I have known him for ages, he mentioned knowing the Sales manager at Kings Southampton, who is called Vic. When I picked the car up and mentioned to my sales guy about fitting a new Stereo, he then mentioned the same thing, about Vic knowing Ed at Sextons, and go there for the parts.
Who would you go for?
Anglesea or sextons?

For Alpine go to Sextons, for Pioneer I would go to Angleseas.
