I found Roger and Eastside Mobile Electronics about 10 years ago. Discovering gold in California in 1849, pretty good . . . but not as good as this find. Roger solves problems that you think can't be solved. I know we all can be stupid, but you know what's truly dopey? Going to the dealer for something that you can have Roger and his mighty crew do. If there were 400 stars, it wouldn't be enough. This man is not only competent, he's an absolute sweetheart! His wife better appreciate him! I sure do. And, the beaut is you don't have to sit somewhere and waste time staring at your phone. (You should maybe stop that, anyway. It's hard to watch.) EME comes to you. I'd go on, but I'm afraid Roger might think I'm after him. Ha! read more

Eastside Mobile Electronics - Brand new Kenwood Marine install / SeaDoo Speedster boat! Sounds perfect!! - Car Stereo Installation Near Me

Eastside Mobile Electronics did a fantastic job installing my new head unit. They were on time, professional, and clearly knew what they were doing. Austin walked me through everything afterward, answering all my questions with clarity and care. They came right to my house and had the job done in a couple of hours, which was incredibly convenient-and they installed it just a day and a half after my first call. Very fast service! They're also a direct dealer, so they handle all the warranty and paperwork themselvesno third-party runaround. Top-notch work, great communication, and real pride in what they do. I'm happy to support a local small business-and they absolutely earned the five stars. read more

Great experience. They came to my office and installed CarPlay on my Audi. They were super professional and on time. Employees communicated when they would be done. Enjoyed the whole experience. read more

I had a problem with a speaker in one of my cars. I called Eastside Mobile and talked to Rodger. He was great told me what I should do and he was right. He installed the speaker at more than half of what the dealer wanted and it works great! I was so pleased I had him and his son install an alarm, stereo and a back up camera on my work truck. They come to you which is great! They are legit good people too! Super great deals and service. I'm super stoked and will use them again! read more

Eastside Mobile was extremely professional and very punctual. They did great work and did exactly what I asked in addition to explaining everything very clearly. read more

I was recommended Eastside Mobile through Benito at the Hillsboro Ford dealership, and my experience was great! Roger was super nice and helpful on the phone. The speaker in my car has been broken for a while, and needed a part repaired. I was able to order it off of eBay and had the Eastside Mobile crew come help me get it installed. They came straight to my work which was super convenient, and it took them all of 10 minutes to replace the part and now my speaker works great! Very fair pricing too--got it done for WAY less than the Ford dealership quoted me for. Highly highly recommend. read more

These guys are amazing and incredibly honest! They installed a unit for me over 3 years ago and it quit working. They came out and fixed it and would not let me pay them. They said a wire had come loose so it was no charge. Who does that? I highly recommend them for any auto electronics you m ight ever need. read more

Roger and his team did excellent work on two installations for my vehicles. The first was a back up camera for our Ford Focus. The second was very custom, to install side sensors on our van. The van installation was complicated, but the crew was very creative in coming up with a solution that works very well at alerting the driver when there is an intrusion, especially a pedestrian, too close to the vehicle. ESM is very skilled in what they do! read more

Awesome service, stereo & cost very reasonable! I called Roger and he was able to schedule my install within days at my residence. Austin & Jason were very pleasant & efficient installing a nice Pioneer stereo into my old car to play iTunes! Now I can ditch my CD's, although, it plays CD's too! :) The sound is terrific also. I would recommend 'Eastside Mobil Electronics!' read more

If I could give Roger a six star rating, I certainly would... You will not believe what he did for us! We had a Lincoln that we purchased. We loved the vehicle, but it did not have navigation, and he installed it. We had some quirks with it so we told him, and he reinstalled a brand new one for us at no charge. What a great value it was worth every penny we paid. This man is trustworthy and his crew is 110%! there should be more business owners like Roger and his son, Austin and their workers. Thank you Roger for all you did for us you helped us so much! You can trust this guy with your electronics to be flawless. read more

Roger provided and installed a new Apple Car Play compatible Sony car stereo for me in my 2008 Chrysler van. He was friendly and answered my questions about this "new technology." He got the job and cleanup completed in an hour. Graciously, he looked at my even older Ford truck and gave me some affordable ideas on how to upgrade its unusable radio. His price was fair and because he did the work in my driveway, I did not have to get someone to stay with my disabled wife while I shopped and arranged installation at a pricey brick and mortar store. I've already recommended Eastside Mobile to two friends. read more

I wanted a replacement radio installed in my car, and I opted to upgrade to a new radio and backup camera. I chose Eastside Mobile Electronics based on positive reviews, price, convenience--and the fact the Rodger, the owner, answered my initial call. My radio and backup camera were promptly and expertly installed--at my residence. And they work great. I'm very pleased with the whole interaction with Eastside Mobile Electronics and would enthusiastically recommend them! read more

Roger and his team are amazing! I came into a brand new car, thanks to a bad accident that happened late last year. Unfortunately, even though my new car had almost every bell and whistle you could find, the only thing it did not have was Apple CarPlay. It seems like an unimportant thing; however, it was becoming more and more dangerous for me to get car mounts, when my phone either refused to stay up, and would keep falling on the floor. I also would have had to keep buying new mounts for every phone transition I would make in the future. I just wanted my screen to mirror so that it would be safer for me, and it is pretty nifty to have everything all in one place. After calling and emailing many other places around town, and being treated like an idiot for not being car savvy at most of the other establishments, Roger was able to give me a very reasonable, affordable price. He stated specifically that he didn't want to screw me over and wanted to work with my budget. The head unit he offered me is really nice and it's even fancier than I imagined. The other places quoted me 2x as much as he did, and what is even more awesome is that his team comes to you! I got to sit at my desk and work while they worked on my car. Another plus of not having to wait until after work and then waiting around for my car to be worked on someplace else. A couple of members of Roger's team came out to where I was located. Jason was also a super nice guy. I forget the other guy's name that came with him, but he was also a pleasure to work with. There was a slight hiccup with one of the parts they had ordered for my car, to retain my steering wheel controls and backup camera capabilities. Roger called me right away and assured me that they would get the right part to me ASAP, and they wouldn't charge me any extra of course. As promised, Jason came back out again a few days later. Through all of the complications, they were all very easy to work with and I was able to get exactly what I wanted for a great price. My car model happens to be one that was a real pain in the ass for retaining the backup cam and steering wheel controls. Roger threw in a brand new, top-of-the-line camera for me, because he wanted to give me what was promised and he really cares for his clients. Very honest and trustworthy people. If I ever need anything else for my car, I will definitely give them a call again! I have attached a photo of my original head unit and then an after photo of the new, sleek head unit they installed for me. Everything works wonderfully and I could not be happier. Thank you guys so much! For anyone else who may not be car savvy, and has been treated like you're a child at other car stereo places, especially those big-named ones, skip all of that crap and call Eastside Mobile Electronics instead!! read more

I was pleasantly surprised that the folks who operate this store actually listened to me and tried to really fix me up with exactly what i was looking for without being pushy. They fixed me up within my budget and installed new system without chopping up my old unit. So, if I decide to transfer my new Kenwood to another RV in the future it should not be a problem.

I contacted Eastside in Aug. '09 to install a backup camera in my 2006 Pleasure-Way motorhome, which is built on a Ford Econoline van chassis. I saw the Eastside mobile unit in my sister's neighborhood, then again this business name in the rolodex of the service rep at the Ford dealer when I was there for service. An omen. Roger was great. I called him up, we talked about what I was looking for, he described the product that he sold, I did some web research into the unit, thought it met my needs and Roger ordered the unit and installed it the next day. Roger brought his crew and equipment and did a great job for a fair price. The camera and display were both top notch, and cleanly installed. Having a clear view out the back is a huge help for me and even on the first trip out, I was able to back into a campsite at midnight and see everything - including the bugs flying in front of the camera! read more

Roger Keto is the king in cruise control installment and customer service. My car didn't have cruise control. After reviewing the instructions for installment, I realized I didn't have the necessary tools to install the parts. I wouldn't have saved much money if I were to buy the tools and set up the cruise control system myself. Therefore, I decided to hire a mechanic for this job. After talking to A LOT of companies, Roger gave me the best price compared to other competitors. Asides from the price, he provided outstanding service and thoroughly answered my questions. My steering wheel required a lot of human muscles to be taken apart. The work he performed was heavy duty and back breaking. He worked hard to install the cruise control the way I wanted. Roger even updated other stuff - unrelated to the cruise control installment - in my car for FREE. Check out his website as Roger also does other installments. http://www.eastsidemobileelectronics.com Thank you Mr. Roger! read more

Roger is da man. Like da man da man. He came over to put our new car stereo. We got a nice stereo from him and fast installation at our home. WHAT? Yes! Hermits like us don't have to go anywhere to get our new stereo installed. WINNING! We tried Best Buy before and it was such a hassle. Support your local portland mobile electronics expert dude..give Roger a call. He is da man. Thanks Roger! read more

Roger came out today, spent an hour fixing my stereo and amp and only charged me $75 bucks. Previously some joker from Craigslist came out charged me $50 bucks and all he could tell me was the previous installer did a horrible wiring job without figuring out the problem. Roger said the previous wiring job was fine. I should have used these guys first, Roger knows his stuff and is super reasonable and friendly. read more

Forgot to write a review on these guys. Had my radio installed about 5 months ago. They came out and installed my radio very quickly .. I was shocked after a quote from another place they were extremely affordable. They were super professional and nice. My car was older and had previously had the stereo ripped out in theft and when they were done you'd never know it didn't come with the car blended beautifully and super nice stereo system. They also took the time to go over the features with me and set up my blue tooth. read more

Had an auto start installed in my truck today. Roger did an amazing job. Highly recommend this company.

I contacted Eastside Mobile after finding them here on Yelp. I spoke to Roger on the phone, initially just to quote out a new set of speakers. I had some pretty shitty stock speakers in my Rav4, and after talking to him, I didn't even call anyone else. He was really easy to talk to, and reassured me that his business could take care of me. He explained what speakers they offered in the Good, Better and Best ranges, and told me that I could expect a much better sound just from their "Good" set of speakers. He never tried to "upsell" me, and was really straight forward on their pricing as well. I explained that I was a bit concerned with any manufacturer warranty challenges, and he shared that he had been in business for over 30 years and had never had issues. They back their labor with a warranty of their own. Roger and Cody came out to my office (talk about convenient) to change out the speakers. I handed over my keys, and they were done within an hour! Roger explained their process and what they completed. All in all, speakers and labor, it was an extremely good deal. I followed up with Roger a week later after hearing a slight vibration, and they came out the next day to check things out. Small problem solved - no issues, no questions asked. They are super responsive, knowledgeable and friendly. Would absolutely recommend them to friends/family/yelpers. Wish I had more things for them to do for me... If only all businesses were set up this way... read more

Roger and Israel are the BEST! I called on Tues at 5 and got an appointment for the next day at noon. Maybe I got lucky for such a quick appointment but the experience was awesome. Israel was fast and efficient putting in my stereo and back-up camera and they work like a dream. I'm going to have them come back and install a front bumper camera so I don't scratch the front of my car. If you are in doubt about calling them, don't be. They are super friendly and very affordable which is important compared to a lot of other companies. read more

I had a great experience with Eastside Mobile Electronics. We recently bought a used minivan, and the one thing I was bummed about not having was an OEM-installed backup camera system: we had seen the 2.4" monitor in the Kia Sedona rearview mirrors and had been impressed. I did a lot of research into trying to get the same quality OEM mirror with a monitor installed: the auto-dimming kind rather than the one that ends up being a darker mirror. I ran across Eastside Mobile Electronics, which offered the (now discontinued for 3rd party sale) 2.4" monitor ... and the owner of EME, Roger, offered to sell and install the 3.5" LCD monitor version for the exact same price. Now that it's installed, I'm *much* happier we have the 3.5" monitor (about the same size as an iPhone screen) than the 2.4" monitor offered in the "power package" OEM from the Kia dealer on new cars. Since EME is based out of Portland and I'm in Seattle, the installer Storm drove north and I drove south and the installation was done in a mall parking lot. Storm was right on time, courteous, explained exactly what he was doing and why, and finished within an hour. The install is clean, the wires routed internally behind the panels, and the camera is well-placed. I would highly recommend EME. They gave me a fantastic price for the Rostra 3.5" backup system that, fully installed, was just a few dollars more than the cheapest price I could find for the parts alone online, meaning it was at least $100 less for installation than the cheapest quote on installation alone... and a full $350 less expensive than a price quote I received from a Seattle installer for sale and installation, and that would have been of the less-desirable, non-auto-dimming Rostra package. Given that we have super-active toddlers, it was one less stress point to have a good and reliable backup system that doesn't clutter the dash. (As I mentioned, it's integrated into the rearview mirror: you see the monitor only when you put the car in reverse; otherwise, it's just the regular mirror. There was a recent NPR feature on the actual mirror, which is manufactured by the Michigan company Gentex.) I appreciate that Roger actually steered me away from the non-autodimming model based on the feedback he'd received from other customers (who complained about the mirror being too dark). And the installation went without a hitch. I was quite impressed. The Rostra setup has a 3 year warranty, but the EME *installation* carries a lifetime warranty. read more

My car was broken into and they ripped out my head unit, fried my amp, and messed up all the wiring. Roger and his team came to my house and did all the work in my driveway, super convenient. They were fast, high quality, and a great price. Gonna have them back when I'm ready for a new system in my van! read more

I inherited a truck from my dad when he passed away. I'm not a truck kind of girl but driving my dad's truck always makes me feel close to him and all the fond memories we shared going to places together so I couldn't bring myself to sell it. Because I felt nervous trying to park what to me felt like a huge vehicle, I decided to invest in installing a backup camera. I found Eastside Mobile Electronics online and discovered that they come to you to do the repairs so I wouldn't have to wait in a lobby somewhere for hours while work was being done. Roger talked me through my options on the phone and sent me links to the websites that had the parts he would use so I could see what they looked like and decide on what style I wanted to go with. Roger and his team (Jason and Austin) did an excellent job! They arrived a little early, got started as soon as I was ready, only took 1 hour as they promised, and BONUS since they came to me I was able to get stuff done around the house while I waited. Jason did a great job installing the camera in the back and the wiring under the truck. He even cleaned up my battery when he saw I had a lot of corrosion on it and added a protective liquid (sorry I don't know what it is called). Austin handled removing the Weather Tech and floor lining for the install and discovered my dad had hidden a spare key that I can now use. He also showed me how to unlock the Weather Tech liners my dad put in, just in case I need to take them out or adjust them myself in the future. Roger took care of wiring and configuring the dashboard display to receive the video from the camera installed on the back license plate. He showed me the display and how it turns on when I put my truck in reverse. Roger let me know I have a 3 year warrantee and will take care of any issues that may come up related to the install or the parts. I took my truck for a drive as soon as they were done and the backup camera worked GREAT! The video was very clear. My son and I tested how far out from the Green, Yellow and Red lines on the display correlate to how far away an object is from the back of the truck to help me get a better idea of the depth in the display. I'm so happy with my purchase and now feel more freedom to enjoy driving my dad's truck more often. Thank you Roger, Jason and Austin for a job well done! read more

Jason and Austin were outstanding. I just bought a new car from Courtesy Ford and the salesman Clyde recommended them to remove a front and rear dash cam from my trade in and reinstall in it in my new car. They were very professional and fast, they hung around after and reprogrammed it for me and explained how to use everything. I highly recommend them and will call them for any future work I need done. Thanks again Jason and Austin outstanding job read more

Rodger was outstanding! Not only was he super friendly and efficient his services were incredibly reasonably priced. I was so pleased with the finished project (back up camera, and new stereo in my F-250) I will be recommending him to everyone. He is Ford certified and his experience showed. Thank you Rodger for everything. I am so pleased! read more

Last summer I purchased a 2011 Ford Ranger XLT. It comes with everything except cruise control. So, when I got the Secretary of War, errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, my wife's permission to get an aftermarket CC unit, I asked the dealership who they recommend and they referred me to Eastside Mobile Electronics. I did a LOT of shopping around and they not only came to me but offered the best price that I could find ($399- but there was a dealership referral discount of $50). The owner himself came out to my workplace. He was on time, pleasant, professional and did the work in the time he stated he would. As it turned out I had to drive to Hood River and the CC unit worked flawlessly. They also do stereos... and they have my recommendation. read more

These guys just left me with a beautifully installed stereo, and it could not have been easier or more pleasant. I ordered the stereo and parts online thinking I'd install it myself, but I ended up getting my factory radio stuck in the car and gave up. Roger and Cody came out, undid my damage and installed the new setup in less than 45 minutes. They even cleaned up the marks from where I had tried to pry the old stereo out in desperation. And it was less expensive than I expected. I'll definitely be asking these guys to perform any upgrades I want in the future. read more

Roger and Cody have been my 'go to' guys for my last three vehicles. From dashcams to radar detectors, they're solid! Fair price, great service, great work, and friendly. Couldn't ask for a better mobile electronics partner. read more

After reading all the positive reviews, I decided to go with Roger at Eastside Mobile Electronics. I'm so glad I did as it was done in just under a couple hours. Had him and Jason install a double din head unit and backup camera on a BMW. As complicated as BMWs are with electronics, it was a piece of cake for them. I highly recommended them and will be going back again in the near future. read more

If there was a way to give this company a negative 50 I would. I spent around $1,200 for an install of a stereo and backup camera on an old truck I have last October. This place was referred to me by my Favorite Ford Dealer (whose name I will not mention because I am embarrassed for them to be associated with Eastside). I am not talking about Courtesy Ford (who does a lot with Eastside and Courtesy has a checkered past). I put up with a lot from a bad Sony to having to upgrade (more money to a Pioneer) and the lack of support after the sale was somewhat spotty. There is a young man that works here named Austin (he is a good guy and a gentleman, I just have a problem with the owner). The final straw for me was from about six weeks ago I was getting kicked off of bluetooth (while talking) and bluetooth audio when I hit a bump (not every bump but it progressively got worse). I visited the young man 3 weeks ago and asked if it was the USB Port (he said not) and I found myself calling him for follow up (as in what did he hear from their stereo supplier). I was told it was either a software issue or wiring behind the radio. I waited another ten days and finally called my friend Peter Clover (he owns Mobile West) and I should have gone there to begin with. Peter told me over the phone it was "likely" a USB Port and probably flush mounted. I visit Peter and roughly $100 later problem solved (I was also told the product they used was of poor quality). In Austin's defense he did call me thinking it was the USB Port (I already had Mobile West fix it). I contacted Roger Keto (the owner of Eastside) and said I thought I was due some money, he refused (that is alright, by this time I did not expect much from him) and he said they were waiting to hear what Pioneer had to say. So let's review shall we? My radio loses it connectivity when I hit some bumps and the other guy (Mobile West) knows right off the bat it is a USB Port. Roger proceeds to tell me that my radio is no longer under warranty from them since someone else touched it (I told him I was fine with that). Actually I consider that a Blessing. How do I feel about all of this? I am sharing my experience with my preferred Ford dealer and I have several contacts in the Automobile Trade. I will just stick to the facts but please be aware, this company does not believe in service after the sale (it's the owner, not the employees). I also forgot to mention earlier that when they installed USB ports in my B-Pillars of the truck they had to take out the B-Pillar and the Plastic Tread Plate in the back seat floor, they never put the tread plate back correctly and I had to buy two new ones since they broke the clips (My dealer can verify this for me). Stick with Mobile West, get it done right the first time. read more

Roger at Eastside Mobile Electronics has installed several stereos, sound systems, alarms, and a remote start for one of our vehicles in the past. He also installed a stereo and alarm on a couple of our service vans. He has helped others in our family and our business, he has always gone above and beyond. I'm a business owner and I keep coming back because Roger & Susan at Eastside Mobile Electronics are a local family owned and operated business that cares about their customers and their satisfaction. Thank you Roger & Susan Matt read more

For how hyper-critical I often am of user reviews, I feel like my soul has been damned to a frozen hell for actually writing a Yelp review. And tagging 5 star at that (Always suspect. Always.) So here I sit, shivering on a lake of fire turned frozen ice telling you that I am f-ing stoked about Roger and the Eastside Mobile guys. They installed a system in the Portland Short Bus this morning and I could not be happier. The bus was already a bear to work with - the deck needed to be installed outside of the driver compartment where passengers could access it, speakers needed to be installed where sound could be maximized, and everything had to be sturdy enough and totally out of the way of the sometimes destructive forces of tipsy revelers. Roger took the time to come by and look at the bus first, walked me through the ideal setup for our needs, procured the components, performed the installation, and did so within our budget. As fun as it would be to spend a ton of dough on assorted audio gadgetry, the loud rattles of the bus, the acoustics of the interior, and the din of conversation render hi-fi components relatively pointless for us, so I'm also stoked that he didn't try to sell me crap that I didn't need. I didn't even have to leave the office - I'm straight up a sucker for mobile convenience. I'm too busy waste my time haggling with sales people, then taking the time to drive it to the install location, then spending idle time waiting for the install to be complete. Bah - screw that. Let'em come to me. read more

My wife and I were turned onto Eastside Mobile Electronics by Courtesy Ford and could not be happier. The owner, Roger is friendly, knowledgeable, Fast, and installs quality equipment for an affordable price. Really People! Forget about car toys and the rest of the up-selling rip off artists out there. We had a bluetooth system and new speakers installed in my wife's car and liked his pricing, punctuality, (he comes to you) and 'man of the people' attitude so much we had him install a new stereo and speakers in our second vehicle the next day! Bottom line, Eastside Moblie Electronics will hook you up at a price you can afford with quality stuff! read more
