What to know about Bose

I've tried messing with the crossover, have downloaded what the exact specs should be and put it in the HU, still sounds like crap. It's embarrassing if I turn up the volume. Snap, crackle, pop.

Will search around this site for recommended shops near me to do the rest of the audio/repairs. With 3 days time I expected perfection.

I personally do not even touch push button start cars for remote starts yet. Your lucky they didn't fry the cars computer.

I should be out there in a month or so if you would like me to look at the audio.
