this is literally given to u when u purchase tweeters not to run full component speakers on each door
Stev M.

powering my two amps was a self taping screw that almost caught my car on fire . i wish i could put a video to show how crappy there installation is . save ur money and take it to a better shop i'm literally have to redo everything. and the speaker wire to power the highs are so tiny they look like tweeter wire! complete garbage work. the owner needs to fire all her employees and get actual qualified people that actually care about doing a good job . i'm surprised her business is still going with the (installers!) she has she's going to close her business if she still keeps these guys.

Got this from them. Good product

The quality of the image is great. Good resolution. Bought at car audio depot and they also installed it.

DO NOT GO HERE - STAY AWAY!!! - I have never written a review but felt compelled to write this one This shop was recommended to me by my mom, thus I failed to do my due diligence prior to going here and now I am paying the price. If I could give zero stars I would. I took my truck here for tint services on Sunday August 4th. I had an appointment scheduled. Upon my arrival I was rudely greeted by Tim and Edgar whom immediately told me that my appointment had been canceled. (This should have been my first red flag) I told them that I had no problem with rescheduling and coming back another day - Tim began to tell me that the only way to get it done, would be to drop off my truck and come back at a later time. I told him that I did not feel comfortable doing that and I would rather reschedule for another day. He continued to repeat that my appointment was canceled, at which point, the manager, an older Asian woman came over and asked him what the issue was. Once she was informed of the issue, she instructed Tim and Edgar to take the truck and begin installing the tint. Tim immediately changed his demeanor/attitude and began acting more professionally, Edgar went to the shop. I gave them the truck keys and they began working on the truck. They asked us to wait inside the waiting room which had a clear view of the shop through a big glass window. Once the truck was pulled in I saw the tech that was assigned opening and shoving my doors with his body with full force, to the point that the doors kept swinging back and forth long after they were opened. He then started slamming them closed. (second red flag) I immediately approached Tim, the sales manager, who was sitting at the front counter and politely asked him if he could address this with his employee and ask him not to slam/swing the doors and to be more careful. As I was talking he was rolling his eyes and had a look of disgust and annoyance the entire time. (Third red flag & I should have asked for the keys at that point) He then reluctantly fake smiled and stood up and went to "talk" to the employee. I would have spoken to the manager instead but she had already left for the day. The employee and other techs in the shop began talking smack after this. Little did they know that despite the loud music they were playing in the shop, we could hear everything they were saying through the thin glass window. "They are going to tell the Asian lady about the truck." to which the tech replied "I don't give a fuck." The tech continued to slam the doors with full force, at which point my partner stood up and went to the shop to ask him to stop. They were also told that we could hear everything they had been saying through the window at which point every one in the shop got red and quiet. Tim then walked over from the other side of the building, where he was sitting in the shade with his face buried in his phone, to let us know that the employee had not been slamming the doors. We let him know that it would be impossible for him to know, since he was more preoccupied with being on his phone than supervising his employees and we were watching the entire time through the window. We asked for the employee's name and Tim stated that he did not know it, despite being the supervisor on duty. My vehicle was returned to me with scratches and dents and the leather on the door was melted. The tint job is less than satisfactory. A 5 year old could have done a better job. The tint is full of bubbles, scratches, scrapes, finger prints, and is overlapping in some places and doesn't fully cover the windows on others. I took the truck back the very next day, August 5th, to show the owner in person and was told she was not available. We went back August 6th & 7th to see if she was in and was told by Tim that she was not in and he didn't know when she would be back. I have been trying to get a hold of the shop owner and have been getting the run around by Tim. I will be taking them to court for damages if I do not hear back from the owner by the end of the week. Pictures don't do it justice but are worth a thousand words!

How my radio was given to me was asked to come back because his wife was cussing him out.

See all

Stopped by to see if they could assist with removing my car alarm and it seems that they are closed for good.

My husband went in there for a complete system installation boss man said it would be a total of…read more$1000. They didn't complete the service the day of the transaction; following day went back to finish the service. Big guy sitting in the desk told my husband that the "part of the transaction never went through" (OUR bank statements say otherwise) and that he needed to charge him again. He charged him again also adding $350 for tint job that he promised would be $250 total since he "really liked" my husband... that was just false advertisement for us to spend our money there! The system that they installed went out within a week!!! BC the the incorrect wires were used.. they set the system up to fail just to get more money! Anyways they stated that we had warranty as well if anything happened... husband went back in to get it fixed under " warranty" but instead left with another charge of $900+ for the new system... mind you they never finished the tint job as well .. bc "no time" Not to mention, they broke the back panel of the car when doing the installation didn't bother, giving us a discount or addressing the problem Really wish we would've read the yelp reviews before spending any dollar there!! I don't recommend them! They're very unprofessional bad with time management! You could tell their business is failing just by the way they come up with random amounts to charge you! And by the lack of cleanliness in the store itself !! In total, we spent around $2700+ !!! Just to have a boof system and half ass tint

We are very happy with the job they did and Dennis really went above and beyond! This is a one stop shop! We had. A list of what we wanted and Dennis really stepped up and made it wonderful!

New forward and back cameras 6. Wrapped the whole car to white 7. Blacked out emblems and all chrome 8. New stereo system To say we pleased is an understatement.

It sounds great and was pretty much exactly what I was looking for without having any prior knowledge and only being able to express what I wanted with extreme layman's terms lol. The not so good: As mentioned above, I don't know anything about car stereo systems, so this may be an industry standard that I'm not aware of and I may be complaining about nothing, but I find it odd that the subwoofer is not mounted or attached to anything, it's loose in my cargo area. At worst, this seems like a major safety hazard, and at best it seems like an inconvenience should the thing tip over and pull its own wires out which could potentially damage it as well. In addition, I would have liked to have been walked through the installation process, as I don't think I would have agreed to having such a large subwoofer and enclosure in the cargo space as I use the space with the seats down to transport materials and power tools quite often. Currently, this is not possible as the subwoofer takes up considerable space in the cargo area, limiting my ability to put pretty much anything bigger than a shopping bag back there. I will say that I came in a bit late, about 5:30PM and was getting done wrapping up with the payment at almost 6, so this entire installation took place in about an hour, which normally I would applaud anyone for such expedient work, except it seemed more like a rush to make a sale than to do the entire process right from start to finish. I would have been happy to come in the next day if more time was needed. A bit more transparency for a newbie like myself would have been appreciated with perhaps some options for retaining my cargo area space. I was asked for some pretty sensitive information (SSN, bank account and routing numbers) with no explanation on why it was needed, only to find that I was being signed up for financing multiple times across multiple platforms to see which would approve me for the highest $ amount. If I was asked if I was looking for financing or to pay up front, the answer would have been upfront. Financing wasn't necessary. I ended up agreeing because I was told on Fridays there is a 10% discount if you finance, but I'm unsure if that ended up getting applied as I only financed $300/~$1300 I paid, 1080 was paid upfront. Overall, the employees seem skilled and knowledgeable, but the customer service could use a little work.
