Car stereo installation
Head unit installation with a dash kit and harness, so the receiver sits flush, the steering-wheel buttons work and the backup camera shows. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto installation is the usual reason.

Whittier audio work
Speaker replacement
Door speakers that handle real power, mounted on adapters, with the wiring secured so the panel does not buzz at volume.

Car window tint
Solar and Solar Ceramic, hand-cut on a glass board, four doors and the rear window.
Alarm installation, remote start installation, GPS tracker installation
Viper 3108V wired so it cannot be bypassed from the fuse box, Compustar 9910, hidden GPS.

Questions
Whittier questions we hear
What does car stereo installation include at the Carson shop?
The receiver, a dash kit so it sits flush, a vehicle harness so no factory wires are cut, and a retention interface for the wheel buttons and camera. We test every function before you leave. Whittier customers usually pair it with speaker replacement so the new head unit has something worth driving.
Do I need an amplifier if I replace my speakers?
Not always. Good speakers on head unit power sound noticeably better than factory. An amplifier installation is the next step if you want more volume without distortion, or if you add a subwoofer. We will tell you honestly which one your car needs when you describe what you listen to.
How far is Whittier from Audio MotorSports?
About 16.7 miles, a 33 to 40 minute drive when traffic is light (approx). The shop is at 22025 S Avalon Blvd Ste A in Carson, one bay for car stereo installation, subwoofers, amplifiers, CarPlay, car window tint, alarm installation, remote start, dash cams and GPS, so one trip can cover several jobs.
Can you fix a stereo install that was done somewhere else?
Yes. If the amp cuts out, the speakers buzz, or the head unit resets, it is usually a wiring, ground or gain problem. Bring it to Carson and we will go through it and set it right. Bring any paperwork from the original install if you have it.
Will you tint the windows on a Whittier car the same day as the audio?
We will. Book both and the bay is scheduled for the full day, audio first and tint after so the film cures untouched. Solar is $249 and Solar Ceramic is $329 installed as of October 2026. Drop the car at 9:30 AM and pick it up before 6:00 PM.
