You might think it’s just an in and out job, but car audio installation is a lot harder than you would think.

 

Car audio installations are some of the most common car tech add ons out there. Many people believe that a car audio installation could be done by hand. How hard could it be? Isn’t it a simple case of taking out your old car radio and adding in the new one? Whilst it may seem all well and good on paper, it’s good to know just how easy it can be to install incorrectly, and even worse, to ruin your car audio for good.

Whilst car audio installation may not be the first service you think of when it comes to auto upkeep, most good car audio stores will offer you a free check up and can book you an installation in store. If you’re still not convinced, we’ve listed some of the great reasons to go pro below.

Your neighbour probably isn’t the audio whizz they say they are

 

It may be all well and good getting your mechanic neighbour to take a look at your engine, but when it comes to wiring, a favour from a mate just won’t cut it. If you’re looking for car audio installation done right, you’re going to have to find a professional. The fact of the matter is that only those who have been trained in electronics and car repairs will have the know how for the complexities which come with audio wiring and sound balancing.

Online saves money but doesn’t save time

 

Buying online might be the cheaper way to get your new car radio system, but that leaves the install to you. Taking a trip to your car radio expert will help you to understand exactly what your car needs instead of being left with a package of wires and hardware which you can’t make heads or tails of.

 

Pros know their electricals

 

Professionals in store know their electricals. They’ve been trained in it, maybe even to degree levels. That’s why getting your car audio installed in store is the safest and most cost effective option in the long run. Car audio installers need to know the ins and outs of the electricals in your car, where the battery is connected to and the most efficient route for the wires through your car. You wouldn’t fix your engine if you hadn’t been trained, so why would you install a car radio?

 

Pros have the right tools for the job

 

Furthermore, professionals have the right tools for the job. Your car audio installation may need specialist equipment to do it right, the right screwdriver sizes and potentially the right wires as well.

 

Pros know what’s best for your car

 

Getting the help of a professional will also ensure that you get the best sound quality and value for money. Car audio installers know how to improve the audio in your car whilst also keeping the wiring safe and efficient.
