Sleek 2014 Audi RS5 Gets Rigid Industries Fog Light Upgrade

By

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.

Smartphone-Controlled Remote Start Upgrade for 2021 Audi Q5

By

One of our regular clients from Anchorage brought her 2021 Audi Q5 to us to get a remote start system installed. Cold winter mornings would be no match for this beautiful new car.

We chose a Compustar RFX-FT2600-SS two-way remote kit paired with a Compustar CMVWXMAO control module for easy control from the remote key fob, or from her smartphone via the DroneMobile app. We used a T-harness so none of the vehicle wiring had to be modified to make the system work, although one of the OEM key fobs had to be sacrificed to integrate the new system. The OEM Audi push-to-start ignition system still operates normally, and you’d never be able to tell anything on the vehicle was ever modified.

Two-Way Remote Start Added to 2019 Audi Allroad Push-to-Start

By

A local client from Anchorage, Alaska, recently came to us looking for a remote start for her 2019 Audi Allroad. After talking with her about what kind of range and features she was looking for, we decided to install the Compustar Prime 901, a two-way remote with an LCD screen, and the DroneMobile app. “Two-way” means she will be notified when the vehicle is started, locked or unlocked through an audible tone and an LCD screen – even through a push notification when using the Compustar Drone app. “LCD screen” means that the remote comes with a digital screen that provides feedback, showing icons for lock and unlock, the time, the internal temperature of the vehicle, and whether the vehicle is started or stopped, as opposed to just buttons on an LED remote.

Since this 2019 Audi is a push-to-start, it goes to show how experienced our technicians are at installing auto starts, especially for European vehicles. Our customer was over the moon when she came to pick up her vehicle, knowing that she had a reliable remote start that guarantees she stays warm all winter long and can cool down her vehicle on hot summer days.

The next time you’re looking for an autostart and need highly skilled and trained installers to work on your complex European vehicle, Perfectionist Auto Sound and Security will take care of you. Contact us using our website or stop in, and we’ll be here to help you.

2018 Audi Q8 Gets Smartphone-Controlled Long-Range Remote Start

By

In the midst of auto start season here in Anchorage, Alaska, we see customers come in every day with all types of vehicles. From Toyotas to BMWs, from the 1990s to 2020s, we see it all. It is always exciting, though, seeing a newer vehicle come in that not many installers have worked on. After consulting with a customer who has a 2018 Audi Q8 and talking about her specific needs and preferences, we decided on the Pro G15, a two-way remote with a range of 2 miles. “Two-way” meaning she will be notified when the vehicle is started, locked or unlocked through an LED light, audible tone or LCD screen — even through a push notification if she’s using the Compustar Drone.

We start every install with a check-in 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 from any scratches. Our techs prep the install by soldering every connection; electrical-taping each connection; and then using JK Tapes, a cloth tape similar to the tape used in factory, to clean up the install. In this case, the installation took place in the trunk of the vehicle, rather than the driver’s-side dash.

Since this 2018 Audi Q8 is a push-to-start, it also goes to show how experienced our technicians are at installing auto starts, especially for European vehicles.

Slice Remote Start on 2014 Audi A4 from Anchorage

By

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.
