Got a reasonable quote to have a new radio and backup camera installed to my 2007 Honda Accord after reaching out via Yelp. When I came into the shop to have the work done, Sayed said that because my radio was more complicated than he was able to assess, he was supposed to quote me $100 higher, even though I had provided the links to the products beforehand (because Yelp combined the two links I sent into one line when viewed on desktop, he wasn't able to figure out how to click into them ahead of me dropping off the car). That said, Sayed was generous enough to split the difference at $50 and then proceeded to deliver excellent customer service - he was attentive, thoughtful, and even gave a personal walkthrough of all the controls and other tips to keep in mind when I picked up the car. I've been using the unit for a couple of days now and can say the installation was flawless. Would come here again and recommend Precision Auto Stereo to anyone. read more

Wrote this same review on Street Beat as they are one and the same. This experience was by far the worst that I came with so much time, money, and patience. Please note that this business is also connected with PRECISION AUDIO (https://www.yelp.com/biz/precision-auto-stereo-hayward?osq=precision+audio&override_cta=Request+pricing+%26+availability). I initially went to Precious Audio to install a new head unit and back seat entertainment system for my 2006 Range Rover Sport. I wasn't going to push forward on the entertainment system because, it wasn't what I was looking for. Later he advised that the system he sold me had all the newer streaming apps such as Disney+, feature to connect the phone, and head unit to stream the same visuals. Didn't happen. In fact, it was a lot of back and forth because, my purchase was more so treated as a DIY project and not so much that there was experience that they knew exactly what they were doing and how to do it. Which would've been fine if they had stated that initially. I spent a great deal of money for them to work a project they clearly haven't done before. Also, this isn't a shade statement to the installers that do the work who are amazing. This is all directed to the people who run the place. In a 2006 Range Rover Sport the screen dash unit shows the stock feature such as AWD functionality, modes, etc. When my aftermarket purchased from precision/street beat head unit was installed, that screen no longer worked. I asked them what happened and why isn't it on? We went down a tremendous RABBIT HOLE that only took time and money. Nor did they fix the screen for free. That also came at a cost which I disagree with because, it was their guarantee to get everything functioning as normal with the addition of the new head units functionality as well. So just a heads up, their prices are marked up to the highest possible. I guarantee a majority of their products can be found at other businesses for a cheaper cost. SO DO YOUR HOMEWORK FIRST. You're not getting deals here, I promise you that. I was given an initial set up which days later ended up going out. An error would pop up on the screen that said "CAUTION! AMP OVERLOAD." Then he advised me getting a higher model head unit, which of course I had to pay for. In addition, to get my top screen working they asked for the stock head unit (what if it got tossed out?) and apparently had to buy a part that costed hundreds of dollars which I never saw the receipt for, FYI. With all this back and forth, I asked if a discount can be given. For context, I started this project in mid year 2024. So I really did my part to stick it out with them and try to have it work. Especially because this project cost about 4-6k. I pointed out how JL Audio sells the same amp they sold me at a cheaper cost. I showed them how Pioneer has the same deck they sold me at a cheaper cost. And Mo stated they didn't get the "go ahead" from the business to sell at those prices. Really? You're a business who bought the product already. What permissions do you need? Fast forward to present day. The backseat entertainment still doesn't have Disney+. At first they stated that they just needed me to stop by to get it fixed. When I called to set up a meet that turned into, "We have to send the hardware back." for an update. Come on.. How am I going to be without a vehicle, yet again? There's way more pressing things in life to address than to be taken down a rabbit hole with individuals who DO NOT have integrity. I couldn't even get a price match on products in which their retailers sold it for. In addition, my current higher model head unit they recommended still BLACKS OUT occasionally. Like I said, what's the point of going back when I stuck it out with them for a long time, invested good money, and gave a great deal of patience and understanding. I'll never trust STREET BEAT or PRECISION AUDIO to do any of my work. I really hope car audio consumers come across this post to watch their back and their pockets. DO NOT COME HERE. read more

I had to update my review from a couple years ago as nothing has changed. I went in for a dashcam install and the service along with quality of workmanship and clear communication continues to amaze me. Don't risk low quality installs at big box stores when you can visit a dedicated shop who knows auto electronics inside and out. Saeeed is wonderful and so is Sam so either of them will meet your needs. Thank you again for a job well done! read more

Two weeks after I traded my car in, someone claimed I backed into her car when I didn't get close to her vehiclei. The very next day I had my these guys install my dash cam from my previous vehicle. They did a really good job for a reasonable price, and have great customer service. I would highly recommend them to anyone. read more

These guys were the most honest installers I've come across. I had an issue with the steering wheels controls after a install and the radio stopped working. This was right before taking a long drive so needed it done quick. No only did they get this diagnosed quickly but they also fixed a few other items. So impressed with their level of service and focus on making the customer happy. They will be my go to shop for all future needs. read more

My husband and I were shopping for a replacement stereo for our daughter's 2014 Corolla. We had gotten an estimate from another place that seemed high, so the day before Christmas we went to Precision Auto Stereo, received a much lower estimate, and decided to go with it. The stereo was installed the day after Christmas and our daughter loves it. Thanks, Sayed! read more

I brought my 1972 Dodge Demon here to get some front kick panel speakers installed as well as install a self powered sub that I bought installed as well. Talking to Sayed on the phone, he gave me a quote of $535 out the door, I told him I wanted the JL C2s in the kick panels. I thought we understood each other and scheduled for the next day. Come next day, I come by with the car and he tells me he thought I told him I was bringing the speakers and the job was to just install. So now the price goes from $535 to $785. I told him ok, it was just a misunderstanding and I had already taken the time to be there to have it done so we went ahead with the price difference. I asked him prior to the install if the speakers would need an amp to get everything out of them, he told me no everything should be fine. A few hours later, I come by to pick up the car, no one was in the front so I went in the back to see the car with the installer. He tells me everything is installed but the speakers would really need an amp to make them sound much better. So.....yet another misunderstanding I guess. When Sayed comes back, I ask him about it needing an amp and he says well I meant you dont need an amp to just make them work...... I ask him how much would it be to add it and he says it'll be over $600 for parts and labor additional. I drive the car home listening to the new speakers and self powered amp and to me, it sounds much better than before but it left me thinking it couldved sounded much better with an additional amp. Lastly, I get home, pop the trunk and I didnt notice before but my spare tire board cover was damaged. I know this wasnt how it was when I brought it in so yet another expense I'll have to cover. read more

I purchased a dash cam for my car and tried doing the parking mode hardwiring myself, but couldn't make the camera power on via the fuse taps. I already had at home voltmeter, spare fuses, fuse taps, and wire stripping tool all on hand too. It was a humbling moment to decide to get a professional to do the install after all the hours spent watching YouTube DIY channels and reading car forums. I messaged the business the day before for a quote and they responded to me within a few hours for the camera install. I was quoted $100 per camera install, which was a lot lower than what was available in SF proper. Given the solid Yelp reviews already for the business I decided to make my way out to Hayward for the install. Was able to drop in same day w/o an appointment (although I'd still recommend checking in with the business first) and they were able to get my dash cam hardwired and up and running within 30 minutes. I ended up being charged what I was quoted (although your specific camera setup may cost more if it's has more bells and whistles that warrant a more complex hardwiring job). Syed and his team were absolutely professional and the service comes with a 1Y warranty. I mentioned the Yelp promo to them and while they were able to honor the discount, they recommended to just give them a heads up about the voucher in the future before you buy from Yelp because they might be able to just honor the discount right then and there (and it also saves an independent small business money too). In sum, if you're willing to drive across the Bay for a quick, professional, no frills install, this is your place. The place sells dash cams there too (specifically the integrated rear view mirror ones), but I decided to bring my own. Stuff I brought in: - Garmin Mini 2 dash cam - Garmin Parking mode cable - Spare fuse taps compatible with my car and spare fuses (I just had them from my aborted DIY project. Would check with shop to see if you actually need to bring your own. I bet they have them on hand already) read more

Saed quoted me a timeframe and a price point for the installation of a kill switch for our car and it was exactly as he said it would be. Daniel, who I found out has 25 years experience, was the installation technician and he did a fantastic job. I know nothing about car security options and they patiently answered all my questions. I think price will vary depending on your car, but given all the car theft happening these days, it was less than $200 and less than 2 hours to get everything done and to have piece of mind. read more

Very responsive on Yelp, was able to get back to me quickly and was able to fit me in on the same day. Im very happy with my stereo and the back up camera is great and everyone I spoke with was very nice and helpful. I felt very welcomed, definitely a good place to go. read more

Really happy I reached out to Seyed to get my rear dashcams installed. I requested a quote for rear dashcam installation on Yelp and was able to get in the next day. I bought my own dash camera and voltage converter that they were able to hardwire to only turn on when the car is on. They did such a good job that I took both of our cars there. Seyed was responsive, professional, and did the work in a timely and high quality way. No rattling, the panels were removed and replaced great, and I feel good that if anything does come up that they would help fix it. Would definitely work with them again and recommend to friends and neighbors. read more

Precision Auto Stereo - Rear dash cam installation - Car Stereo Installation Near Me - Hayward, California

I am absolutely thrilled with my new car stereo and backup camera. PAS offered quick service and worked with my budget.

I tried to hardwire my dash cam but it was a little too complicated for me. The folks at Precision auto stereo were able to fit me in and do the job for a fraction of the cost of local shops in the east bay!! I highly recommend their service! read more

These guys were great! I went to change out my head unit and install a new sound system. They were able to help me figure out what I wanted and helped me understand the process for what I wanted. They were very helpful, and I definitely recommend this place. read more

I needed a dash cam. I was able to get the perfect one for my needs and it was installed the same day. Mo even gave me a demo and ensured everything was downloaded and synced with my phone and in working order. Wonderful customer service. read more

Great communication. Speedy install. So far new head unit and backup cam working great.

I had a dashcam installed incorrectly by another shop, then went to a second shop where it was also installed incorrectly, then brought it here, and they did it right. The way the first guy messed up the initial install made it really hard for these guys to figure out what the problem was. They literally spent hours on what would normally be a 20 minute job, refusing to give up until they solved the problem. Absolutely heroic! read more

Yelpers, The reviews speak for itself! I came by to get one of my doors pulled apart ( repaired a speaker) for one of my older Lexus and Salead was more than happy to help. The work was efficient and everything was put back together as good as the factory. When I'm ready to replace all my original Mark Levinson speaker, I would not hesitate to come back. A+++ for service and A+++++ for price as well read more

Great service at a reasonable price. They installed my dash cam quickly and efficiently. Highly recommend.

Needed to upgrade the factory sub in my Alfa Romeo but also wanted to retain all of my trunk space and keep the factory look. Daniel was able to make a custom fiberglass enclosure for a 10" JL sub behind the existing panel and hide the amp so the whole system is completely hidden. Car sounds amazing and still looks fresh out of the factory. Would definitely recommend! read more

Omar and the team here are some of the most honest folks I've met -- hugely refreshing. Called them up to install a double din radio with Apple Carplay in my old 2003 Civic SI -- not only did they give me a great price on the install, they did the install the next day + outlined what I could do to upgrade the audio system in the future (if so desired). The radio works great -- no loose wires or issues in the week after. Would recommend that anybody go here if you're looking to get work done quickly and reasonably. read more

Precision installed my Blackvue DR750s-2CH dash camera system with a Neo Cellink battery unit with cigarette adapter. Schedule the appointment via Yelp and called to confirm my appointment. Working with Precision staff they are very knowledgeable and friendly. When talking to the staff they mention a stealth install was best, and when installing the cables will be hidden as much as possible. Service: Precision staff provided friendly service and took the time to explain everything. They told me the range of the cost just in case they ran into any issue. I worked with staff to order the correct hardware to make the install smooth to avoid additional cost. Install: It took less then 2 hours to install everything, once done they had me review everything to ensure it was to my liking. The install was clean, multiple wires that connect to the camera are tape together in a black cloth tape to keep them together and hidden. All excess wires tucked in and hidden. Nice professional install. read more

Precision and Street Best Audio in Hayward went above and beyond my wildest expectations for my cars audio and set up. They took a loose vision I had and brought It to life.

I was hesitant to drive from SF to Hayward to have these guys replace 4 speakers but glad I did. They not only responded first with a reasoned quote but when I showed up, I was able to pick out speakers I wanted without pressure and the installed them with 90 minutes while I went to lunch. I would highly recommend these guys even if you aren't in the area. read more

I was in the market for a Viper Security system for my 2020 Jeep Rubicon. I shopped around and read reviews and eventually came here. Previous reviews for here were spot on. I got to meet Sayed and we worked on the perfect configuration with an honest-to-good very reasonable pricing. Installation was a very straight forward process. It took about 4 hours and my factory alarm and my Viper work seemlessly. Overall, Sayed was very knowledgeable and honest guy to work with. In the future, I will be going back there to upgrade my factory speakers to something powerful and better. So if you're in the bay area and looking for a reputable shop to install a Viper Security system, go here, you can't go wrong. read more

Highly Recommend! Had a Tesla type stereo installed on my Cadillac CTS 2011. Extremely, happy with the installation. Also, took the time to walk me through the basics on how to use it. Sensors, fans, steering wheel buttons, car play IOS/Android, installed and work flawlessly. Can also add USB drive with the dongle provided. Also, had new HD camera replaced which is much better than my flaky original. In use for two weeks so far, and I finally got alot of the tech down, installed my favorites like you tube tv. Now i can watch the Dubs while driving home. Doesnt get any better than this. read more

These guys are legit! I needed a front and rear dashcam installed. Saeed was helpful and communicative. His installer was efficient and did a tidy job of hiding the wires and getting it hardwired. Their price was reasonable and they had it done in just a couple hours. I'm bringing my friend in to have her dashcams installed from them. read more

I came into the shop and was received by their marketing director Salman. Right off that bat he was very friendly and helpful. I came in because my previous setup blew up (a botch garage job that came with the car). The staff took a look and pointed out to me the flaws and how to fix them. They were very knowledgeable and informative and helped me understand the mechanics of a stereo system. Salmon then presented me with multiple options that fit my budget, and tailored the whole system for me. It was a great experience and I will be doing business here again. 10/10 read more

They have adds that are very misleading. They say they will install an alarm for $99.00 installed with all features , but it's a lie. No matter car you own for some reason that specials is not for your car . All the adds are ver misleading . This company has no integrity or honesty. They will not be in business for long with all these fake adds . There is no respect for customers and honor for them. With out customers there is no business . My advice. If you going to put adds be honest about them. Be clear and upfront of what "car" (if any car exist for that price) . Be honest , transparent and clear . Don't put fake adds read more
