Stereo Stores
What ever happened to the dedicated car audio/install shops?
Does anyone know of a GOOD one in central Jersey? There was one in Flemington, but it's gone.
Thanks

Kartronics has sadly gone the way of the buffalo. I am also looking around to see if I can find one locally. There's one on 206 near the Somerville circle but I have not heard any reviews of their work.

I hate to shamelessly plug the shop I work for, but being a long time fellow F-body guy, I know how to make these cars sound good.
Please check for unbiased reviews of my shop, and let me know if I can help you with anything.

I've used The Finishing Touch in Morristown without issues a few years ago and they were good. You could try them.

Very true. Not to mention how integrated the new stereos are in the cars now also
