Yes, we install Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatible head units in virtually any vehicle. Whether your car is five or twenty years old, we can upgrade your dashboard with a modern touchscreen that supports smartphone integration, navigation, and hands-free calling.

We are authorized dealers and installers for JL Audio, Focal, Rockford Fosgate, Audison, Audiofrog, Sony, Kenwood, Pioneer, Alpine, and many more. We match brands and components to your vehicle and listening preferences for optimal performance.

A basic head unit replacement takes one to two hours. Speaker upgrades typically require two to four hours. Full custom systems with amplifiers, subwoofers, and custom enclosures may take one to two days. We provide accurate time estimates after evaluating your vehicle.

Sound deadening is material applied to door panels, floors, and the trunk to reduce road noise and prevent sheet metal from rattling when bass hits. It dramatically improves audio clarity by creating a quieter cabin. For basic speaker upgrades we recommend door deadening at $50 to $100 per door in materials. For full builds with subwoofers, trunk and floor treatment makes a significant difference and is included in our premium packages.

Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a dealer cannot void your entire vehicle warranty because of an aftermarket audio installation. They can only deny a specific claim if they prove the modification directly caused the failure. Our installations use factory integration harnesses, proper fusing, and clean wiring that protect both your vehicle and your warranty. We can reverse to stock if needed.

Yes. We install customer-supplied speakers, amplifiers, subwoofers, head units, and accessories and charge labor only. We recommend verifying fitment and specifications before purchasing. Equipment purchased through us includes our parts warranty and we handle compatibility issues directly. Equipment purchased elsewhere carries the manufacturer warranty only.

Coaxial (full-range) speakers combine the woofer, tweeter, and crossover in one unit. They are simpler to install and work well as a direct replacement for factory speakers. Component speakers separate the woofer and tweeter with an external crossover, allowing the tweeter to be mounted at ear level for better staging and imaging. Component systems sound noticeably better but require more installation work. We recommend components for the front doors and coaxials for the rear.

Yes. We upgrade audio systems in vehicles of every age. For older vehicles without modern infotainment, we install aftermarket head units with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, and touchscreen displays. For classic cars or vehicles with unique dash layouts, we offer custom fabrication to fit modern equipment without altering the original appearance. Adapter harnesses and integration modules preserve steering wheel controls where applicable.

Trucks and SUVs face unique audio challenges including higher road noise from larger tires, wind noise from lifted heights, and limited mounting space. For trucks we recommend JL Audio and Kicker for their high-output speakers that overcome road noise, Rockford Fosgate and Alpine for amplifiers with strong power delivery, and custom-built enclosures designed for behind-the-seat or under-seat mounting in crew cabs. Our most popular truck builds pair Kicker KS components with a CompRT slim subwoofer.
