Default Did a STFA, came up empty. Looking for an audio shop WITH Audi experience in NYC/NJ/LI...(m)...

Considering the custom work needed (faceplate, wiring, door speakers) for S4's, I will be checking around quite a bit locally for a shop I feel comfortable with, but figured I might as well ask on here. Anybody on here in the NYC/NJ/LI area that loves the install done in their S4? If you had to do it all over again, would you go to the same shop? I don't want a half-a$$ed job and will pay to get it done right. BTW, I own a non-Bose 2002. My plan is to install a single DIN HU and remote V1 display in the dash and speakers/sub/amps.

(The archives didn't help on both this forum and the audio one. I already posted the same question in the audio forum)

TIA!

Default Call C.A.R.S. ( Custom Alarm Radio & Sunroofs) in Greenwich, CT....

Ray is the owner and they are the place for high end cars and complex work in CT. All of the high end dealers use them for work, including New Country Audi, they sent me there. They've done work for me on two cars and it's been flawless and clean.

Default Both of my sisters went to Prep. I went to Bayside High. I moved about nine years ago but...

my parents still live there as do a bunch of old buddies.

Play any sports at Prep? I knew Frank Doria who was a star running back there that went on to Purdue.

I played Football for four years at Bayside.

Default I might move eventually as I work out in Whippany, NJ, but...

...like you said my folks and friends still live there too so I'm not in any rush.

Nah didn't play any sports at Prep except phys. ed. lol I actually went there because of the huge art department and cute prep girls. =o) Now I'm an Industrial Designer but didn't marry any high school sweetheart, so 1 out of 2 ain't bad. lol

When did your sisters graduate?
