"The only thing I didn't like about my new car was the stereo. It came with a "premium" Bose system that sounded like crud."

"I am the owner of a 2025 Lexus 300h. About a month ago, I finally decided to upgrade my car audio system."

More reviews

Los Angeles and Long Beach commuters want CarPlay that actually connects every morning — not a deck that drops Bluetooth on the 110. Orange County luxury SUVs often need the factory screen to stay; that is a ZZ2 or similar interface, not a double-DIN shoved in the dash.

Kenwood DMX9707S is a confirmed model in stock. iDatalink flashes when climate and factory data have to remain. No public prices. A payment plan is available.

  • Kenwood DMX9707S in stock
  • Factory steering wheel and camera integration
  • ZZ2 dealer — luxury CarPlay when the OEM screen has to stay. Luxury Car Integration

Questions

From the shop

Will I keep my steering wheel controls and backup camera?

Yes. A stereo install keeps the factory functions that already work, including steering wheel controls and the backup camera. Text Nick the year, make, and model so the quote matches that car.

Can you add CarPlay without replacing my screen?

Yes. ZZ2 adds wireless CarPlay and Android Auto on the factory screen, so the radio you already have stays. Steering wheel controls stay with it. Some cars still need a new head unit. Text Nick the year, make, and model and he will tell you which path fits.

How long does an amp install take?

Book a 10:00 AM or 12:00 PM slot, Monday through Saturday. Most amp installs finish the same day in the bay. Text Nick the year, make, and model so he can say if that car needs more time.

Can I bring my own equipment?

Yes. Bring the head unit, amp, or speakers and we install them. Text Nick what you are bringing and the year, make, and model. He quotes the install for that car. Booking a slot does not take a deposit.

Do you price-match online?

Yes, on head units and on install-only work. Text Nick the online listing and the year, make, and model. We match that price when the part is the same. Full custom builds stay a quote.

Do you offer a payment plan?

Yes. A Payment Plan is available. Open the Payment Plan page to apply, or text Nick and he will send the link. Booking a slot does not take a deposit.

Do I need an appointment?

Yes. Book a slot or text Nick. Same-day is possible if you arrive at 9:30 opening, Monday through Saturday. Sunday the shop is closed.

Can I drop my car off overnight?

Yes, Tuesday through Thursday. Drop your car at close, by 6 PM, and pick it up the next day. We photograph your car at check-in so you see its condition before we touch it. Text Nick to reserve an overnight spot.

What warranty do you give?

30-day written workmanship warranty on installed products. Film and hardware carry the manufacturer's own warranty.
