Went to Elite Customs to install interior trim LED's on my 2021 Tesla Model 3. Second time going to John for something and the end result didn't disappoint. Looks great! Thanks for the hard work.

I would pick a different shop if you really want custom work done with a professional staff. Nice people but sloppy work. I was told by one of the owners "you only paid $xxx amount" as the first excuse and gave them a chance to fix it but more excuses followed "that was the only way to run the wires". Amp wasn't secured down, power was arcing from the power to the remote, and there was very little cable management. Glad I didn't have a fire.

Elite Customs did an excellent job wiring my aftermarket headlights

These guys are the best!! I met John a few years ago, after just moving to Austin, when I was looking for a shop to re-align my after market headlights. John was working at another shop at the time, and I ended up having a poor experience with other people at the shop and went somewhere else. After the shop closed, John saw a negative review I had written for the old shop and reached out to me on Facebook to let me know he was opening his own shop and would be happy to help me there. I thought this was an outstanding gesture on his part and I really appreciated him taking the time. A few years went by and I didn't need any custom work until my headlights were damaged in an accident. Covert Collision repaired the damages on my car and let me pick a new after market headlight kit. I asked them to just install the part and I would take it to a custom shop to get the wiring done. My car was ready at about 3 pm the day after Christmas. I called Elite Customs to see if they would be able to look at it and they said they had time that same day (!). I picked the car up and took it to John and his brothers at around 4:30. Despite them closing at 6 they wanted to get started right away and finished the wiring on the spot! I was very impressed with the eagerness of John and Paul and how quickly they finished the work up. Mike chit chatted with me a bit while I waited which was nice and made the time go by faster. All three brothers are very friendly and really have the customer's best interest in mind. They were easy to work with, even with the collision shop being involved, and in fact said they would have preferred to work closer with the collision shop so the work could have been finished all at once. Will definitely be going back here!!

A small shop with great workmanship and excellent customer service. John installed Apple CarPlay (Pioneer AVIC-W8500NEX) in my 2017 Toyota Highlander. Quick service with great attention to detail, making sure that every feature worked exactly as wanted. Highly recommended, will certainly do business there again.

My son had just bought a used car with an after market alarm system that was not working. Both John and Paul were both very knowledgable and super helpful. An honest business with genuine people! Thanks for treating my son first rate!

Bam! Done son!

These fellas are kind, understanding, professional, hardworking, reliable, etc. I'll go on in this review to explain how an installation with multiple hiccups and hurdles proved that The Car Audio Shop deserves five stars. ---------------- ANDROID HEAD UNITS ---------------- I ordered a beautiful 12" Android head unit and asked TCAS to install it. Nick initially refused, mentioning customers are never satisfied with them and neither are they. I paid for them to put it in after the warning, and I saw what they meant. It didn't work with steering wheel controls, sounded awful, etc. I hated it on day one of install and scheduled my next visit that day. ---------------- STINGER HEAD UNITS ---------------- TCAS only sells and installs what they put in their own vehicles, and I understand why. This Stinger head unit has my 2016 4Runner feeling more like a 2026. Everything works and integrates well, and the sound quality is incredible. ---------------- COST ---------------- $100/hr. Don't let this scare you. Whenever I stopped in for surprise visits over the days they had my 4Runner, there were almost always two or all three working on it at the same time. ---------------- WORK ETHIC ---------------- Find a chair in their shop. I triple dog dare you. When these guys are on the task, they're working and working hard. ---------------- WORK WARRANTY ---------------- Unfortunately for me, the dash cam rear view mirror main unit and one camera were faulty. The manufacturer sent me a replacement and TCAS worked 5 hours at no cost to me on a Saturday to get me fixed up.

Well, on January 6th I was FINALLY graced with the presence of his "highness" to install an amp and…read more2-10" subs in my Raptor. He gave me the sane speech he gives everyone about "doing this for 40 years" but that's where the story begins. I paid almost 3 Grand for the aforementioned setup, seemed pricey but I figured I'd give a "Ma & Paw" a chance at my money as I used to turn wrenches for a Ma & Paw that's highly respected. After installation I was back in 3 weeks because everything turned off, Jeff replaced the fuse abs 2 weeks later I was back agin and the fuse had burned through my fuse box. He said he didn't understand, ordered a fuse box "out of good faith" and this time I was back less than one week later. He has a mouth that makes you wanna test his dental plan but I played stupid to see how much further he'd B.S. me, so since I used to install music in my cars back in the day I decided to check the EQ settings on the amp which he claims they did(which they didn't) and then said he didn't understand and would order some aught wire (which he made me pay for) because he couldn't figure it out. Remember, he's been doing this for 40 years!! My music was barely above what it was on factory so I popped back by (because they don't answer the phone) to see how much more I could get out my setup. He went through his busy spiel, mind you I'd been taking off from work and taking Lyfts for these "comebacks" and he once again pops that loud mouth attitude and a says they'll have to remove the seats, (thinks my Raptor is a Dodge) blah blah blah the installs said aught wire and...almost no bass! These idiots were seriously tuning from the deck and trying to say THAT was the problem, Mr.40 Years Doing This said that. I zeroed everything out on the amp, (something they didn't do) zeroed out the bass, then begin systematically tweaking the level and gain with my scope until now my 10's are damn near hitting like 12's! These idiots will install your stuff out the box and tweak the settings from your deck instead of the amp do you keep coming back. I give a 10/10 for the installation and a less than zero for their tuning and customer service. Jeff, you owe me a 25% refund for the days I took off and my Lyft rides but charged me for the aught wire and 5 comebacks. Make it make sense. 5 comebacks and I ended up tuning my own amp when Mr. 40 years was tweaking setting on the head unit. Good luck, he's only catering to the 20 grand installs.

Kenwood…read moreDMX809S Excelon flush-mount install with Maestro harness, backup camera, front and rear dashcams, parking sensors, and license plate camera. Everything looks factory-installed -- zero visible wiring, clean bezel fit, OEM stealth look. You would never guess this is aftermarket. They used a Maestro iDatalink harness to preserve all factory wiring so nothing was cut. 500+ Kenwood installs and it shows. The attention to detail on cable routing and trim reassembly is excellent. They also stand behind their work -- told me to come back anytime if anything needs adjustment or fixing. That kind of warranty and after-install support is rare in this industry. Knowing they've got my back long-term gives me full confidence in the install. My wife drove the car the next day and thought it came from the factory like that. Planning to keep this car to 300K miles and pass it down to my son. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a professional clean install in the Austin area.

This is one of those times I wished 6 stars was an option…read more Wanted to give my daughter and her husband an upgrade for their 2017 Forrester infotainment system that had been rendered near useless by the Texas heat. Her Subaru dealer wanted a fortune to just replace it with the OEM unit with its 8-year-old technology that even when new was behind the technology curve compared to other carmakers (a lingering issue for Subaru). I reached out to a couple well-reviewed shops but was so impressed by Sohail at Pro Car Audio. He runs the place and knows his stuff up and down. I called him 5 minutes before closing one evening and he spent the next half hour walking me through the pros and cons of mid-priced options for that vehicle. In that conversation he explained the unique considerations for that model of Subaru and why a Kenwood model would be far superior to the Sony unit I'd been looking at somewhere else. We struck a deal, booked the install, and it all went down yesterday. It was a great experience. Sohail and his team installed the unit in precisely four hours--exactly what he estimated. The unit and its trim kit are seamlessly integrated into the vehicle and have none of that "aftermarket" look you used to see in non-factory stereos. And the team at Pro Car Audio integrated the steering wheel controls with the unit so you almost never have to touch the screen on the new unit. What's more, the unit now displays car status info that her original head unit never did, including tire pressure and battery charge level. When my wife and I get fed up with the head unit in our own Subaru, we'll call Sohail again. I know just the unit to have them install. (PRO TIP: If like me you decide to wait for your car vs doing a drop-off, check out two phenomenal spots a half-mile's walk from the shop. The first is Marimbas Guatemalan Bakery (great baked goods and coffee and wonderful people). I stopped there for coffee and a treat. Then when it was time for lunch, I walked down four doors to Peace Bakery and Deli, a Mediterranean spot that serves a badass veggie schwarma and crazy-good tabouli. And don't even get me started on its many, many baklava varieties. Both places are located in the same strip center at Braker and N. Lamar. It's like a 10-minute walk at most from Pro Car Audio. I posted up at these places to get some work done but I mostly just ate.)

The other week, I was driving down 183 on my way to work and there was some unknown traffic blocking my way, so in an effort to avoid the brunt of it I took the Duval exit. Lo and behold I was still late to work, but it was all worth it because I noticed this little gem of a shop. I called them and got scheduled for the next week. I got to the shop first thing in the morning, and just before the shop closed I had basically a brand new car! It did take the whole day and was a little pricey, but the kind souls there hit me with a little discount. It was so worth it! I can finally see out of my windows, the tint is so smooth and makes the 20 year old car feel brand new. I got the regulation grade on the front two windows and a medium tint on the rest. I went with the less heat blocking tint because it was a cheaper deal, but the application was so good it's still blocking sun. I would highly recommend getting your tint done here!
