Question Subwoofers In Lease Is350 And Warranty?

Hi,
I Have 2 Aftermarket Subwoofers And A Amp That I Want To Install In My Leased Is350. Does Anyone Know If By Doing This Anything Happens To The Warranty Of The Car Or Lease Terms? Please Help Out

best way to find out is give your dealer a call

It should be all specified in the terms of the lease. i.e. read the fine print. Generally, NO modifications are allowed.

The car is LEASED.. What will they do? Force you to buy it? I have known MANY many people to throw everything from stereo systems to performance mods on their leased vehicle.. just take it all off when the lease ends. Stereo equip is the easiest of all.

Lease or no lease, unless the specific problem that develops on the car is directly caused by something aftermarket, then it will be covered.

it is very common for people to install aftermarket stereo equipment and such to leased cars, then remove it when you return it. my Is is lowered tinted and has wheels and does not change any of the factors of the lease. when i return it i put it back to stock and im on my way. I have seen complete turbo set ups and body kits put on a leased cars and then removed when the lease is up......installing a subwoofer and amp will do absolutly nothing to your contract as long as its not "permently moddifified"

I am sure dealer does not like leased vehicles to be modified, but sometimes leasing program offers better interest rate. If so, I would lease it and pay it off later so I don't lose the rental money. Of course, modification will not be a problem if I eventually buy it.
