Rolling Thunder Audio

Decent price for a job well done, cheaper than Best Buy and very satisfied. Shop local!

I’m writing this review in contradiction of others posted here because I’ve used Rolling Thunder not for 1 but 2 remote starter installations and have never had an issue with their work or performance of the equipment I purchased from them! My remote starter will start my car about 1000ft sometimes, I sometimes start the car from inside the supermarket while on line so it’s nice and warm when I get there. I’ve recommended at least 2 or 3 people to use them and all are satisfied, I’m bringing some one there today to get a remote starter done and am confident they will be very pleased. I will continue to use them for all future vehicles I may own.

I brought my car into their shop so they could install a navigation system (that I bought separately). The owner Dave, which I have used a couple of other times was friendly but very direct. He got his young son to do the install and he would occasionally go in to supervise. The installation was pretty straightforward as the Nav system came with all of the connectors. The total install time was 1 hour. I was charged $ 140 cash ($ 20 for an extra cable). I thought this was a bit steep — especially when a less experienced person doing the work takes longer.
The big negative was that they did not let me go inspect what was going on in the garage (due to «insurance regulations») — so there were a couple of problems and all I could do was take their word for it and not being able to suggest a workaround. So in the end, I had paid a high price for uncompleted work (which technically is not their fault but they didn’t allow for much customer interaction to try to get it done better).
So now instead, I have to complete this myself — which I was trying to avoid in the first place.

Brought my toyota venza in for a remote starter. You need to be within about 40 feet for it to work. No name brand. They don’t even give any paperwork with it.
