# Use tape instead of connectors: Most of us having used black tape to hold wires together, while this is good for the short-term and in stable environments it will not work for long durations, as the tape wears off.

In a moving environment like a car it is even more dangerous as it could lead to fires.

# Wire nuts: These last, but they are bulky and do not always fit properly behind the entertainment system.

It is best to go with the right kind of connectors, which an expert would be able to provide.

** They Don't Get The Correct Voltage ** It is critical to read the voltage requirement of the entertainment system and to figure out the voltage output of the car.

While most systems will play off the box, it is not necessarily the case with older cars and the new entertainment systems.

The implications of a botched job can vary from a disgusting looking interiors, poor video and audio quality, damage to the entertainment system, overall damage to the car wiring or more serious the chances of a fire which could endanger the passengers as well as cause serious damage to the car.

It is for these reasons that installation is best left to the experts. It can cost as little as USD 45 and take less than half a day to get an expert to do the job.

The consequences of an ill-advised DIY attempt can be felt by you the reseller as well.

It is always convenient and easy to blame the product for any drop in sound and video quality.

Buyers would also be expecting you to give the right installation advice. Ensure the FAQs on your site, clearly state the dangers of self-installation.

If this goes against the popular "DIY anthem", so be it. In the long run, your customers will thank you for being right, not for attempting to be popular.
