- Comments Off on 2003 Toyota MR-S: No more power antenna noise, please
This customer came to us because he absolutely hated the power antenna on his MR-2. He had located a retrofit kit but the vendor was out of stock. We were able to come up with a retrofit kit of our own and got the parts in and installation done quicker than his source. Reception is the same but no more noisy antenna going up and down.

- Comments Off on Aux Port – 1999 Honda Accord
This student came to us with a factory Honda radio that had no way for them to get audio from their smart phone or music player into the car. The parts list was short for this build and we were able to get them the capabilities they needed within the budget they had allocated.

- Comments Off on Aftermarket Radio – 2004 VW Passat
The tape deck and CD player was not cutting it for this customer. We suggested some OEM integration options but they decided they wanted a totally new look and decided to go with a double DIN format receiver as the solution to their problem.
It was a a fairly straightforward solution for us given we have so many installation parts in stock and we were able to take care of this customer the same day.

- Comments Off on Radio Transmitter – Ford Ranger
The owner of this Ford Ranger came to us wanting to replace the standard Ford radio with a smaller and more up to date receiver. He also had a request to be able to install and integrate a radio transmitter (as he is a licensed radio operator). Having done many similar radios in the past, we knew we could give him a great result.
Our technician modified a standard installation kit to provide a nice appearance and sturdy mount for his transceiver. Then we installed the CD receiver with Bluetooth and routed the antenna appropriately for the transmitter. Once completed, we waited for the owner to power up and test the radio and he was very satisfied with our custom integration for him!

- Comments Off on Bluetooth CD Receiver – Ferrari F430
This customer decided that the factory radio in their Ferrari F430 was simply not cutting it anymore. We reviewed some options and he decided to upgrade to a bluetooth CD receiver with smartphone compatibility and added a SiriusXM tuner as well. Despite very little technical information available for this particular car, we were able to source the appropriate connectors which made the installation very clean and neat.
While we were at it, we also hard-wired the customer’s radar detector and concealed some of its wiring.
