South County Mobile Electronics has always demonstrated superior product knowledge and way better customer service skills for us over the years. They initially helped with our 2001 Corvette, then with our 2004 Colorado, and now, they are resolving our 2000 Chevy Astro Van issues. All of our issues involved factory (G M) radios/GPS devices and custom installations. (They even solved a subwoofer issue on our Lexus for roughly half of what the dealership would have charged.) They are very intelligent and thoughtful in their solutions and are able to accommodate us without a problem. They truly listen to what our expectations are for equipment, and all possible solutions are discussed prior to installation, There has never been any "SUPRISES" when we pick up a vehicle. This has indeed instilled a sense of trust in us, which nowadays, is so rare among auto related services. We trust them, and that is why we are submitting this review. Speaking of reviews, we read some here that seem very unfairly biased. Price has never been an issue with us, only high quality products, superior installation practices, and outstanding customer services. Most all of the other vendors mentioned in these "testimonials" couldn't hardly hit the mark on just one of these. let alone all three. And as far as pricing goes, we're so done with big box stores, plus, neither of us is going to buy anything out of the trunk of a car parked behind Kmart in the middle of the night. Never be "pennywise" and "pound foolish" and you'll sleep better.... Pete and Patti from San Clemente read more

I went in Wed and found that I couldn't get the job done until Sunday. I talked to the counterman (perhaps the owner?) who was friendly & helpful. He told me it would take 2 hours or less, and to come in at 9AM Sunday. I asked him if there was a cafe close by and he said there was. I told him that I would drop off the car and hang out there until the car was finished. I was there a little early and waited until about 9:10 for them to open. The installer, a rather impatient man with an attitude, went over what I wanted done. I signed-in, gave him the keys and said he said they would call me when the car was done. I said that I would be at the nearby cafe if they needed anything from me. It was then the impatient installer said that he could only say that the work would be done by 4, not by around 11AM as previously coordinated and agreed. I cancelled after waiting for the (NON) appointment for several days... total waste of my time. Right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing there. My appointment meant nothing. Lots of similar businesses... you would do well to skip this one. read more

South County Mobile Electronics installed a brand new Pioneer AVIC-6000nex, back up camera, Navigation, antenna, iPod connection, HDMI, dual USB and aux input into my Infiniti G35. Installation price was perfect for all of the options that were installed. My Android phone connects through an HDMI adapter or bluetooth and works flawlessly. Telephoning while driving has never been better with crystal clear sound over the system. These guys have great customer service and the prices are fair. I think that other posters have said that they are expensive which is irrelevant if you didn't buy anything from them. Also, did they ask for a price match of local businesses? No one in local business can match internet prices not to mention, you will have to wait for your parts. Either way, they back their work, are quick to problem solve and always ready to help. They are definitely knowledgeable and have a lot of experience. I am very pleased with the clean installation of all of my equipment. Thank you SC Mobile for your great service! Dennis read more

These guys are fantastic and really know their stuff. My husband and I brought both of our cars in over the weekend to have them install XM satellite radio tuners. They had to tackle two completely different installation processes and had them both done in no time (BMW 325 and Audi A3) -- even though they had to do some extra surveillance to find the secret can bus connectors in the A3 -- and mission accomplished! Overall Dean and Tom are super -- could not have been nicer, and provided outstanding service at a very reasonable cost. Don't hesitate to bring them your business -- and btw, Dean (the owner) has been doing this for 30 years ;-) cf and jf read more

SCME is the place to go!!! Excellent work and great customer service. I had an issue with some old speakers that were out of warranty and he helped me out anyways. Not too mention that he finished the job before I could finish my coffee.. Seriously took him like 5 minutes. That's the kind of great service you just don't find anymore. These guys do all around great business- 10/10. read more

These guys are great! I have a 1975 VW Bus and I wanted to keep it looking stock but sounding hot. They hooked me up with a Bluetooth Amp and hidden speakers and even dug a stock AM radio out of their "archives" to complete the look. I had a minor problem the day after pick up, brought it back and the solved a problem that was not truly their issue. Dean and Ceaser Thank you! read more

I have brought several cars over the years to South County Mobile. Both Dean and Kevin are very knowledgable and honest. They are upfront about the costs and do great work. They are also great guys. If there's any questions or any issues, they are very wiling to help. I really like this place and trust these guys. I will continue to go there for all my car audio needs. read more

I just wanna give a shout out to Mark and Dean, they installed a new camera on my 2019 truck and also hooked me up with a camera on my service trailer. I'm a local HVAC Contractor, and got great customer service from the both of them with great work... so appreciate the customer service guys -thanks for a job well done. read more

Bought my own stereo but ran into snags putting it in myself. I took it over and Kevin helped me out for no cost and without making me feel like an idiot. A few accessories I needed were in stock and prices were comparable to anywhere else (even Amazon). Highly recommended. read more

Great people. Honest. They could have sold me a new car stereo and speakers but fixed a couple wires on my old one, installed a new antenna and said I didn't need to spend the money. It's a real pleasure doing business like with people like that. I recommend them highly. read more

These guys are super cool. Bought a stereo there. I'm the guy with the silver f-150 who doesn't know how to work his stereo. Every time I mess it up Mark dials me in. Great customer service, I highly recommend these guys. Tell them the PITA (pain in the ass) sent ya... read more

Wonderful customer service. I purchased a new system and had it installed recently. The prices were great and the work was perfect, but what really stood out to me was the service. They're just great people who do great work and I'd recommend this store to anyone. read more

Kevin knows his stuff! I took my Mercedes CLA45 AMG to add a rear camera. It turned out perfect. The dynamic parking lines and distance lines worked as they should. It was a clean job and I will give them my business in the future. read more
