Default Audiomobile Review

Hello NorCal fellas,

It has been a few days since Audiomobile installed a Clifford G5 security system on my RX300. I haven't had a single problem within the last few days and am still somewhat learning about the unit but my main reason for an aftermarket security unit were the addition of different types of sensors and peace of mind.

As far as I can tell they did a top-notch, clean installation as I have peeked everywhere and a half without seeing a single hanging wire or knowing where the brain of the system is placed. I also opted for Intellistart remote start, I was skeptical in the beginning because almost every other shop I had inquired about required me to give up a key in order for this to work. With Audiomobile this wasn't the case, I still retained all my keys and remote start works beautifully.

Alan, the owner of Audiomobile was professional, courteous, and helpful in making sure I understood what I was purchasing. Although Alan didn't make the install on my car, the tech that did was also very helpful in explaining to me how to use the unit as well as small tips and tricks.

There were about 4 other vehicles in their small shop at the same time getting things from sub+amp, to security. They seem to always be busy but never hesitate to stop for you to ask questions. I felt that I paid a fair price considering most shops quoted me $100-$200 more than Audiomobile.

I highly recommend Audiomobile for any audio, security or I.C.E. installations as they are true professionals.
