Car stereo. Tint. Car alarm.

Car Stereo Installation

A stereo install has to keep the factory functions that already work: backup sensors, steering wheel controls, backup camera, and on some cars OnStar, the front or scene camera, the mirror camera, blind-spot assist, and the warning chimes. Maestro or iDataLink is what lets the new stereo show climate, doors, and tire pressures. We build each job with genuine parts for that car.

Backup Camera Installation

We add a camera when the car already has an aftermarket stereo — that radio supplies the trigger. Luxury cars that never had a camera can need a separate module. We do those installs too.

Bass Amplifier Installation

Power comes through the firewall, fused and loomed, and the amp is mounted and grounded properly. If the car has an aftermarket radio, we pull it and run RCAs plus a remote wire. If it still has the factory stereo, a high-to-low adapter or a processor takes the signal, then RCAs go to the amp. Most cars take two to three hours; some European and EV cars take longer.

Four Channel Amplifier Installation

This is the longest install — the amp runs the speakers. Same power work as a bass amp, plus a full rewire: power on one side of the car, RCAs on the other, so the system does not pick up engine noise. The usual mistakes are a speaker wired backwards, which puts the system out of phase, or the wires run together, which brings engine noise in. Typically four to six hours, and the most expensive install.

Speaker Installation

Every car is different — front doors, rear doors, dash. We take the panels off the right way and put everything back right.

Subwoofer Installation

Enclosures that actually fit the car. Packages are built around how hard they want the bass, with the right cables and the install.

Full Sound System

A full system is a head unit or processor, speakers (four plus two tweeters, or six), a bass amp, and a sub. That covers acoustic, loud, or heavy bass. Some customers do it in visits — head unit, then speakers, then bass, then four-channel later. Others do the whole system at once.

Window Tint / Ceramic Film

Ceramic film is still polyester. The “ceramic” name means nanoparticles in the film that block heat, so you don’t feel the burn on your skin and a lot of the sun’s heat and UV stay out.

We hand-cut a micro-edge so the film sits seamless around the glass — not a computer-cut piece with a gap at the perimeter. Every car takes two to three hours in the shop. We treat the car like it’s ours and make sure it looks perfect.

Car Alarm Installation

A basic alarm covers doors and shock, starting around $269. Smart-key and keyless-go cars use the same alarm with a DB3 module so the factory fob, hand gestures, and keyless go stay. Remote start means finding the proper wires and stitching each one — no T-taps. Diesel trucks are a different job from a Dodge Charger or Challenger; some cars need a T-harness, and some need extra parts like DB3 and a bypass module.

GPS Tracker

An add-on to the alarm. Lock and unlock, start and stop the engine, and a notification if someone breaks in.

Ignition Kill

Sold alone, with an alarm, or with a GPS tracker. Once the car is locked, it will not start — even with the factory key.

Dash Camera

Thinkware front and rear, with an optional cabin camera, installed with the alarm work. Kits and remote-view options sit with the alarm, GPS tracker, and ignition kill on LA Car Alarm.

Harley Bagger / AMS Quick Disconnect

Harley bagger audio since the early 2000s. Crash-bar pods are built in-house, chrome or black — they sit on an angle and almost disappear behind the bar. Street Glide and Road Glide bags get a soldered line with a quick disconnect; Road King puts the amp in the bag on a carpeted board. The pods and the method are on AMS Pods.
