I'm doing this school not only to learn the advanced knowldge of car audio, but also the custom fabrications and upholstery.

As for knowing detailed information such as color wires for specific model vehicles, it's only a pain till you pass the mecp. after that, shops normally have a database containing that information...at leats that's how it is for all the pro's at avic411. In this day and age the internet is more reliable than a library, and even though you may have to know that information for the exam, you can always find it online after that point, ya know? So it'd be back to high school with hours of studying and drilling things into my head, but I honestly have no problem with that if that's what it takes.
