I have been having all kinds of problems with my rs2 that Ihave had in my teg, and now in my accord...so finally after the third time back to best buy, I got it do start acting up....
all the installers (some who used to be my employees), were baffled, and we wanted to take care of it. since I was an employee I only paid 125 or so for the RS but I paid to have it installed (the second time, shuuush lets keep that a secret). so...after going back and forth with the MOD (who I never liked and vice versa), we decided that since the most comprable model we still carried was the 3.5 and its not the same brain or wirining, I would have to pay the difference *against the real price *since in essence it was a new product as well as repay to have it installed... which is kinda sh*tty but I understood. the alternative was to send it back to DEI and have them replace it, which they supposedly do, since they have a lifetime warranty... I agreed to this and we sent it out....3 weeks later they call me and say hey, its back. so I go in this morning and we check it out and they must have just cleaned the board up and stuff, cause the casing was still the same (had the same dust on it). so I am all excited and we put it in, we get it all programed and are all excited, when it goes nuts, and starts doing the same thing again...so I am pissed and the installer is pissed. we called the GM and after arguing about it for a minute or two, we decide that he will let me exchange it for an 3.5 and pay the difference between what the employee price is on the new one vs. the old one, and then pay to have it reinstalled *(which should be cheap since all the wires are already there)*.
so I guess I am not thrilled cause I dont really like the new dei product and they have been having so many problems with them, but oh well, it either that or send it back out again...<br />
anyone with the 3.5 what do you think of it, and did you have another dei system before it to compare it to. *steve*<!-- well at least I got a rs3.5 out of it.... -->
