Sleek 2014 Audi RS5 Gets Rigid Industries Fog Light Upgrade

One of our repeat clients from Anchorage swung by with his sleek-looking 2014 Audi RS5 for a fog light upgrade. He wanted to increase visibility while driving at night, and wanted to make sure the lighting was durable and built to last. We had the perfect solution for him.

We selected the Rigid Industries SR-Series Fog Lights because they are SAE-compliant, meaning they can be used on-road, not just off-road like many aftermarket lights. These lights are designed with a patented Clarilux optic system to spread the light evenly across the lighting pattern, and are less likely to produce glare for oncoming drivers. We integrated the mounting pods into the bottom center of the grille, and wired a switch inside the car so the driver can control them independently from other lights as needed.

For all your vehicle lighting upgrades, Perfectionist Auto Sound and Security has you covered. Stop by to see our team at the shop — we would love to customize your vehicle to fit your style. [96004]

New Custom Seat Covers Bring 2014 GMC Sierra Interior to Life

A customer stopped by here at Perfectionist Auto Sound looking to upgrade the look of the interior of his 2014 GMC Sierra truck. He wanted his seats to complement the silver trim inside the vehicle. He was not a fan of the factory cloth seats and wanted a different material and sleeker design. In addition to a new look for the seats, he also wanted them to be heated.

We designed the seats using silver contrast stitching and a two-toned light-gray center. The seats looked great and matched the rest of the interior perfectly.

We then installed the button for the new heated seats on the dash, and it looked like it had come straight from the factory. The customer was happy and loved the new look of his truck.

For all your interior needs, Perfectionist Auto Sound and Security has you covered. Stop by the shop — we would love to customize your vehicle to fit your style!

Dodge Ram Remote Starter Installation and Audio Upgrade

04/29/2016 By John Schwartz

Ram Remote StarterA client from Eagle River came to Perfectionist Auto Sound & Security with his 2014 Ram 1500, looking to upgrade the audio system and install a remote starter. Our team looked over the vehicle with him and listened as he explained his goals for the upgrades. We work on lots of Rams in our shop, and when we told him about our Ram package, he chose it instantly.

CarPlay Upgrade

 

Ram Remote Starter
The Pioneer radio gives the client the ability to play many audio sources as well as access to Apple CarPlay.

We began by replacing the factory radio in the dash with a Pioneer AVH-4100NEX unit that comes with Apple’s CarPlay software. When we introduced him to the benefits of CarPlay in our store, it became a must have for him. Our installers were able to integrate the factory-installed backup camera to show up on the big Pioneer display, which was a plus.

Pioneer Amplifiers

This Ram truck sounds as good as it looks, thanks to our audio upgrades!

We added two Pioneer amplifiers to the vehicle and installed them in hidden locations – a GM-D9601 that powers the subwoofers and a GM-D8604 to power the front and rear speakers. This combination gave the client over 1,000 watts of clean power, so when he wants to jam, he has all the power he needs.

Audison Front Speakers

For front speakers, we chose the Audison APK165 6.5” component set, installing the woofer in the front doors and the tweeters in the factory locations in the dash.

Hertz Rear Speakers

In the rear doors, we installed a set of Hertz ECX130.4 5.25” coaxial speakers. In our usual Perfectionist fashion, we installed all of the speakers on custom composite speaker adapters and soldered and heat-shrank all connections.

Custom Subwoofer Enclosure

The custom accents on the subwoofer enclosure really highlight this installation.

When it came time for bass, we went back to Hertz, choosing a pair of 10” ES250.5 subwoofers in an enclosure that fits perfectly underneath the back seat. Our team created a fiberglass mold for Ram trucks to let us make the fiberglass enclosure outside the vehicle, keeping the smell down and improving the finished product. We covered the enclosure in matching carpet with custom vinyl inserts for a classy touch.

Two-Way Ram Remote Starter

Regardless of the temperature, the client will always have a warm vehicle to get into, thanks to his remote starter.

You know every vehicle we touch needs a remote start. In this case, we installed a Compustar RF2W-G9 two-way system with up to 3,000 feet of range. Now the client will always know if his doors are locked or if the vehicle has remote started.

Slice Remote Start on 2014 Audi A4 from Anchorage

A client came to Perfectionist Auto Sound and Security with her beautiful 2014 Audi A4. She was looking for a two-way remote start with decent range. Two-way means she will be notified when the vehicle is started, locked or unlocked.

She decided on the Slice because it is a very slim two-way with 4,000 feet of range. The Slice can also be upgraded to the DroneMobile at a later time and will give her unlimited range as long as she has Wi-Fi or cell service.

After she decided which unit she would like, we performed our install.

We start every install with a check-in process, using an iPad, which includes taking photos of the exterior, checking the functions of the vehicle and performing a battery test. We then put a battery charger on the vehicle with a fender cover to protect the vehicle’s paint. Our tech then preps the install by soldering every connection, electrical-taping each connection and then using TESA tape to clean up the install.

After the install, our tech vacuums the vehicle and then another tech checks out the vehicle. We then present the vehicle to the client and our sales team teaches our client how to use her new remote and provides any extra information she needs to know.

When you are ready to have a remote start of your own installed, or need more information about remote starters, please come in or give us a call. You can Contact Us Here.
