Anyone know of a car audio fitter in or near south west London whom you would trust your PAJ with? The stereo in mine is going tits down (that's worse than tits up. Think about it.) and I could do with either getting it repaired or a new one fitted.

I've found a couple of places, but a recommendation is always good.

Never had a problem with CATS in Farnham (no connection except as a satisfied customer, usual disclaimers, the quality of your ICE system may go down as well as up, ...)

Can I point out that if it's just a headunit going in a newish car it really is a piece of cake to fit it yourself, all manufacturers have adopted the ISO block conector making the hardest bit getting your old radio out the dash if you haven't got the 'keys'

Is "ICE" a brand, like Pioneer?

Any good?

I want to see if someone can fix the old JVC one first. It's nice and silver. The newer one I've got came out of the S2000 when it moved on. It's a better headunit but it's black. I don't really care but the lady wants silver. What can a man do?

Sextons in Wandsworth Old Town have done good job on various cars I've had over the years.

Opposite the Alma pub and next door to Wandsworth Town railway station.

Talk to Craig...

You could try droping Bassfiend a mail, I think he used to be involved in this area, and may know a good person/company in your area.

Rob,
Sorry I haven't replied earlier. That evil thing called work keeps getting in the way. I'll ask Steve if he can remember the name of the shop. They fitted ours there and then and did a great job. Won't be a mo!
