There are not enough positive words to say about Frank and his crew. He listened to my issues, make appropriate recommendations, and never attempted to sell me anything I did not want. I went to replace a broken Jeep stereo, and I will have to admit, it has been a very loooooonnnngggg time since I have had to do that. Frank gave me information for items at various price points and I never felt pressured nor did I experience any sexism that I tend to get at other male-run establishments. This is one of those businesses I love to support, even if I have no work to be done. Great rapport, pricing, and fast service. Highly recommend! read more

Had a small wire break at the back auto-dimming/compass rearview mirror on my Highlander. It was very hot but less than 15 minutes they fixed it. I was pretty amazed it took a very short time. read more

Initially visited North County Mobile Electronics to get some information about getting a dashcam on a new vehicle. The gentleman working there, I believe his name is Frank, provided all the details on the different dashcams they offered and what the total costs would be for installation. They also offer installation on dashcams you provide. I decided to go with the brand they offered because I figured they weren't going to offer and/or stand behind a junk one (fingers crossed). Plus I had no clue what to look for in one myself. I set up an appointment for the following week to have it installed. He gave me an estimated timeline on how long installation would take since I was leaving my vehicle there, and he met that estimated timeline. The dashcam has both front and rear cameras and they hid the wires/cables well. So far, I'm very pleased with the dashcam and the features it includes. I will definitely use North County Mobile Electronics again in the future if I need anything else installed and will recommend them to others without hesitation. read more

Great job installing my Viofo A229 Plus two-channel dashcam with the HK4 parking mode kit on my Camry Hybrid. Got an appointment within a couple days, and the install was done in under an hour while I waited, at the exact price quoted. Frank is a good guy, and the installer did a great job. Placement was clearly done by someone who knows what they're doing, tucked behind the rearview mirror and not interfering with the rear defroster. All wiring is hidden and looks very clean. Some shops quoted more and wanted the car for half a day. Glad I went with these guys. Would definitely recommend. NOTE: This review is entirely my own and written solely at my own initiative. No one asked or incentivized me to write it, and I have no prior relationship with the company. I wrote the entire review myself from scratch, and I did not use any artificial intelligence tools to write or edit it. read more

If I could give 500 stars I would. HIGHLY recommend this business. I made a feeble attempt to install my own new stereo and it was a disaster. Blown fuses, wrong wiring, disaster! Haha. I called to get a same day installation and they were able to squeeze me in. While I greatly appreciate their flexibility, their service, knowledge and expertise is unmatched! I felt so lucky and fortunate to have found them. The job was PERFECT! I hope everyone finds them too!!! Thank you guys so much! read more

Had a 6-year old GPS/radio system that's been collecting dust in the garage and finally got around to getting it installed. Was worried about compatability because of the age, but it couldn't have gone better. Work was done faster than estimated, saved me money, and the rate was great in the first place. Everything is working great and the system looks awesome. Frank and his people are just a breath of fresh air. Thanks much folks, I'll be coming back for any other car audio work. read more

If you have a Bronco, you know the sound system is bad. I took my Bronco to North County Mobile Electronics and could not be happier with the service and work that was done. First off, they could have sold me on a complete change out of the sound system as many folks have done. However, based on their experience with Bronco's, they suggested an amp and new sub as a first step. I really appreciated the guidance and suggestion. It turned out to be spot on. It made a world of difference. Moreover, you could not tell that anything was after market. The install was very clean and fit perfect maintaining the ascetics. It's really hard to find honest folks that are competent to deal with. Frank and the folks at North County Mobiles Electronics hit all the marks you want when working with a business. Highly recommended! read more

My stereo and backup camera stopped working in my Toyota Sienna. Frank replaced my stereo with an Android Auto JVC stereo. Pricing and service were excellent. I recommend North County Mobile Electronics for your auto stereos. read more

I have an old Beater, I use for getting around. I needed a radio and an old alarm system removed from the vehicle. I called Frank and he had an appointment ready for me and took care of my situation with a quality JVC radio with Bluetooth and all the bells and whistles. Frank knows his craft well, and is very fair in his pricing and does quality work and had the vehicle back to me at the time promised. Thank You read more

I took my 67 Mustang convertible to North County mobile electronics, my very wonderful brother-in-law gifted me a new stereo for the car. But I didn't know how to use it and needed to ensure it was properly hooked up. Frank at North County Mobile Electronics was absolutely amazing! He took the time to make sure everything was installed properly, which involved an amplifier, two subwoofers, a microphone, Bluetooth and other bells and whistles. Then he took the time to show me carefully how to operate the car stereo system. I wish I could describe how fantastic it sounds! Sometimes you come across folks that are truly wonderful and helpful. Frank and the folks at North County mobile electronics are those people. Good service deserves time to write a great review. I definitely recommend them! read more

Frank was wonderful. I told him what kind of dash/rear window camera I was looking for and he made his recommendations. The brand I chose had a new model coming out, so I waited for that one to be delivered to Frank. I took my car back and installation was seamless and efficient. It was an informative and easy process with a great outcome! Highly recommend! read more

I was referred to Frank and his team at North County Mobile Electronics by my service advisor at Hoehn Mercedes. Another family member heard about this place from Lexus Carlsbad too. Already had confidence in this place since at least two luxury car dealerships refer clients here. I just stopped by around 2:00pm in the afternoon to get a quote to install my front and rear dash cams on my Mercedes GLA250. Frank accommodated me on the spot due to some cancellations that day. He also quoted me a very reasonable price. Took an hour or so. Very happy with the install and the place seems like a decent, honest operation. The tech on site even specialized in Mercedes installs which is why Hoehn refers clients to them all the time most likely. Thank you--will be back to get a sub installed! -Scott C. read more

I will start off by saying I am a picky customer when it comes to audio. I am a professional sound engineer and I'm used to mixing on some of the best and baddest PAs in the world. Although I know studio and live pro audio like the back of my hand, car audio is a different world and I studied up on system builds and parts before getting quotes and build recommendations. I love my Jeep but hated the whimpy sound system. I searched around and met with several shops before pulling the trigger on working with Frank and his team at NCME. Frank took his time with me and helped me pick all the right components, source parts during supply chain issues and made sure I was a happy customer. When we realized some components wouldn't work, Frank helped me find alternatives that I ended up being even happier with in the end. His crew (Billy in particular) not only did a super clean install, but went the extra mile in cleaning up all the previous work done on lighting customizations. On top of that, this shop and ownership was always looking out for my budget and were always upfront and honest about costs. If we hit a snag, I always felt like they were going out of their way to do right by the customer (me!). My wrangler sound is absolutely stunning, balanced and powerful. The stinger controller looks amazing and has all the options I could need. Frank and Billy custom made my sub boxes and pointed me in the right direction at every point in design, fabrication and getting the biggest bang for my buck. Loved working with Frank, Billy and NCME so much, I went back for an alarm and they gained a loyal customer for life. Nice job guys!!!!! read more

Good people. Solid advice. I was stumped on upgrading a 2006 Toyota Tacoma stereo system and these guys offered consult and guidance on the exact parts to use in addition to workarounds. I explained I didn't want to mess with the stock wire harnesses and they showed me how to make a custom adapter. They're so good, they can walk a first-timer through with simple instructions. They care enough to ensure you truly understand and that if you don't, support is available. Considering how they had my fix solved in 2 minutes, I can only imagine what they can do for more complex jobs. These guys are the real deal so just stop looking and check them out. read more

Frank gave me a great quote and worked on my Vehicle the same day. He kept me updated and asked me how I wanted everything placed. I needed my 10.1" Single Din Pioneer, Front JBL Speakers, JBL 5Ch Amp, and Rear Subwoofer installed and his team did an excellent job. No funky wires hanging out or anything out of place. I'm definitely coming back for my electronic needs! Thanks so much again fam! -So read more

Definitely found my place for car electronics. Worked with Frank who was great I had quite a few questions over several days where he helped navigate me through the process. Didn't try to over sell, just helped with what I needed. Ended up getting a new receiver, rear camera and front camera. Installation ended up looking great, cameras were well hidden and installation was completed sooner than expected. Pricing was competitive. Ended up locking keys in the car outside of his shop (long story). Frank stopped what he was doing and helped me get the car unlocked. Definitely great customer service. I highly recommend anyone looking for a new system or any car electronics to reach out to Frank. read more

Great no-nonsense service at a fair price. I will definitely return if I have any more car audio needs!

Amazing shop to do business with. The owner Frank really goes out of his way to ensure the client is taking care off, gets the best product at the best price possible, he really cares about customer satisfaction. Highly recommend this shop for all your auto electronic needs. Very clean job he did on my 19 RAM 1500 limited, install front and rear constant recording cameras, 4 way sensor upgrade on alarm, and upgraded audio with kicker tweeters, amp and ported box with 2 50gold104 10"s. Amazing quality sound. Can't complain. read more

Frank is a genius. I originally took my car to Best Buy to get the stereo fixed and 2 separate guys/techs couldn't figure it out so I left. I took it Frank @ North County Mobile and he figured it out and had it fixed in 20 minutes. Turned out that it was a corroded wire that he traced, found and thus replaced. It was fantastic. Thanks Frank read more

I really can't say anything about their work. I tried to get a quote for an audio install in writing and it seemed like pulling teeth. Ended up going elsewhere. read more

I love electronics and I love my car; Frank and his guys updated my baby so there's more to love... I always said, "The only thing missing from this car is a backup camera," and now she has one. Not only that, but there's more light using the camera than when I look in the mirrors. I also went from factory AM/FM radio with CD player (aux port) to USB-connected system that syncs with my phone, and it's so easy to use! I give it commands all day... It reads new messages to me (when I want it to), then asks if I want to reply and reads my replies before getting final approval to send. I had a new Hyundai in 2015 with a factory system that did all of this, but it didn't understand my voice very well and telling it to make calls led to complications; the system I have now has done everything I've asked without issues. The big screen is beautiful with the background photo I chose for it, and the map/navigation is great. I love telling the car to take me somewhere without having to pick up the phone. All my apps seem to work well with it; it's fun telling the system to play music (Amazon Music). Carefree and hands free! Thank you, Frank and team! read more

Frank was more than accommodating in ordering and installing a dash cam for my BMW. His attention to customer service, communication, and quality of work is unmatched. In this day and age it is terrific to see someone who has such a passion for customer service and providing value beyond what is expected. I would highly recommend NCME to anyone who is looking to install security, audio, or any electronic device to their vehicle. read more

Frank and his team do a great job. They performed work on my vehicle, along with my girlfriend's car. Totally professional, and went the extra mile to install high end components. He was even able to fix an issue created by another company. I won't go anywhere else for future needs. read more

My vehicle is a 2016 Nissan GT-R (value 100K+). I share this not to brag but rather to share the full trust I had in this awesome shop. Background...I wanted to bring the vehicle current technology wise. I had purchased a Nifty City Tesla screen. Upon installing it I could not get any sound. Nifty City tech support let me know that it wouldn't work with the CAN of the vehicle. I was determined to figure it out. I called 4 different shops, the 4th being NCME. Even before I mentioned my issues, Frank had already shared with me the expected issues. After sharing the expected issues he then gave me ways to solve each issue over the phone. Right there, giving me sound advice without even knowing me or seeing the vehicle. So, I packed up leaving immediately to his shop. He and Billie spent 1.5 hours trying a few things to get the sound to work. No luck. He didn't charge me a cent, even after taking it all apart and working on the vehicle. If you know business, that equates to 3 hours of time that he invested. We discussed the best course of action. We settled on a plan. I went home and was to come back the following week. I dropped off the vehicle and left it for 3 days. They sound proofed the vehicle, installed new aftermarket equipment, installed a new steering wheel I planned to install, and got the new head unit working. The sound is freakin clear and thumps. It is awesome! The work is SO clean and everything works even better than I imagined. They also do not gouge you with their prices or try to sell you stuff you just don't need. Very reasonable, but more importantly they are worth it. Good people, great work, and actually care about their customers. I will be back for additional updates, and will definitely recommend. read more

Brought my vehicle there with factory radio removed, all I wanted was them to hook up the wire harness to the radio, no reinstallation just wire it up. It was totally dead there There were two guys there bored and saw me coming. They quoted me $240, then the guy reduced it to $140. It was really a one man job and taking less than 30 min. Shouldve cost about $50 or $60 They fucked me. read more

RATING: ***** 5 STARS Briefly, NCME previously did an excellent install of two Kicker 6 1/2" speakers. Today, they installed a Pioneer DEH-S1200UB headset and the proper size wedge Kicker 48TCWRT82 - 8" subwoofer/passive radiator which they had in stock. They charged the same $216 price for the sub as Crutchfield. They hooked the subwoofer up to my Lightening 250W amp and the headset to my Clarion 200W amp. $150 for one hour labor was very fair. Total about $384 out the door. I had bought the Pioneer headset from Crutchfield, but Crutchfield gave me TWO wrong recommendations for a subwoofer for behind the seat of my Nissan pickup! Here is a review of NCME, Crutchfield and JVC: Audio life story of my 1991 D21: Recently, I wanted to get a CD player with a physical hand held remote. It turned out it was now only available from Pioneer model DEH-S1200UB. I ordered it from Crutchfield as soon as I saw they had it in stock. This head unit got pretty good reviews. I was amused that several people complained it did not have bluetooth. Nobody said it did. If you want bluetooth, buy a stereo with bluetooth. Why complain? This would be the third headset for my 1991 D21. The OEM was replaced with a Kenwood cassette deck and a CD player, 2 amps and a Polk 10" ported subwoofer. When that Kenwood went bad, I had a JVC unit installed by a shop on Clairemont Mesa Blvd with Sony speakers that were never attached well. This shop kept the keys for the head unit because they "didn't want the customers to interfere with the installation." Eventually, I wanted to remove the JVC unit to check it out before I replaced it. I had to order the keys from the JVC Accessory store who charged $15 for 2 keys and $10 S&H. No more JVC for me. The loose Sony speakers went bad and were replaced by NCME with a much sturdier pair of Kicker 6 1/2" round speakers. These were very firmly attached - much better than the Sony's. I removed the JVC head unit when it finally died. When NCME went to install the Pioneer unit today, they saw that the wiring after three installs was old and pretty messy. I knew the JVC worked the last time everything was connected. The owner Frank was surprised that the Pioneer unit fired up right away. I wanted to get a sealed subwoofer that was smaller than the Polk 10" ported monster. That sub was so big and heavy it probably cut down on my gas mileage. Crutchfield recommended a Kenwood Excelon P-XW1002B -10" sub for $225 or a Kicker 48CDF104 -10" sub for $150. Both of these were the wrong size and shape for behind the seat of a small pickup! NCME hooked the $216 Kicker subwoofer up to my Lightening 250W amp and the headset to my Clarion 200W amp. They firmly attached the sub with a bracket to the back of the cab. They properly charged me just one hour labor for $150 and the same price as Crutchfield for the sub. I had bought the Pioneer headset from Crutchfield, but they gave me TWO wrong recommendations for a subwoofer for behind the seat of my Nissan pickup! In summary, I am very happy with NCME compared to other shops in the past. I'm pretty shocked that Crutchfield recommended 2 wrong size subwoofers! They also sent a lot of extra parts which were not needed, at least at no extra charge. I gave the extra parts to Frank. I should have just taken my truck to NCME for them to select the subwoofer. There seemed to be so many to choose from and I wanted to read and learn a little more about them. I learned I wanted a sealed, enclosed, passive sub, not ported or powered. And passive subwoofers can be very cool for small size applications such as car audio. Read about them. That is what NCME put in. BTW, it sounds GRRREAT! I might be able to post a few pictures later. read more

Wow! 5 STARS IS NOT ENOUGH!!!! The men here are beyond helpful and knowledgeable! I can honestly say that I have never had a better quality of stereo in any car I have owned. I will forever be a loyal customer of North Country Mobile Electronics! Thank you! read more

Took our 1999 Eurovan here for an Apple style Car Play system and a back up camera. The owner Frank, was super helpful in letting me know what system was available to fit the car. They got the car in quickly and with no glitches, got it back to me by the end of their work day. Some of my plastic trim is aged and brittle and they successfully ran the wiring with no damages. Frank then spent the time with me to set up the system. Sync with my phone and explain everything I needed to know about the product. Price for the install and products very fair. Even received a promotional gift. Great place. Highly recommended!!! read more
