ASAP Car stereo & Remote starters — Local services in West Norriton Township

I wasn't sure where to go to get a new stereo system put in for my Jeep Grand Cherokee. I read several reviews for places in Philly, Conshy, Montgomeryville, and other montco / bucks places. I read some not too savory reviews on yelp for ASAP, but after reading enough of them, i decided to give it a shot because 1) it was close by, and 2) the bad reviews were mostly groupon related, and the good reviews were high end stereo related. I grilled Mark pretty extensively on the reveiws, their service levels, my expectations and his. Mark, one of the owners, was very knowledgable on all things car audio, and helped me decide which components to buy. I had a car stereo system for my last jeep from Best Buy, and i thought it was awesome at the time. It was bulky though, i had two 10" subs in a sealed box taking up the whole rear space, and the amps were in the spare tire area making it somewhat difficult to access the spare. There was some rattling and evidence of custom cutting. Mark's biggest selling point was the "stealth" look of the install, cleanliness, and the attention to detail of the install. It didn't hurt that the products at ASAP are high end compared to anything at Best Buy. The Focal KRX2s sell themselves. He even went as far as to hook up a sub that wasn't currently on display just so i could hear it. The install took a bit longer than i expected, or was told it would take. I believe this was due to my orignal quote at speakers as phase one, and subs and amps as phase two... I decided to do both at once, so obviously the install took more time. During that time, they were so kind as to pick me up from my house and drop me off during the install. The finished product was amazing, you can see the car on their website, it's the grey jeep. It's plenty loud, but the sound quality that the MS8 processor and the KRX2 speakers combine to create is like nothing i've heard before. The only reccomendation i would make is that if you are buying a high end sound system, do a lot of research before hand. I was doing research on the fly and found that the combinations are endless. Mark will do his best to give you what you want, but the hard part is deciding what you want. Sound quality comes at a price, no, not that price, the price of manual tinkering to find that sound that works exactly for you. All in all i reccomend ASAP, they are all friendly, knowledgable people, that will help you with your system. I even went back a few times and they helped me change the tuning at no cost,...

I called several times with many many questions, and she answered each of them straight forward. I am sick of calling places and people acting like you owe them business. This was NOT one of those places. I am sure my questions would of annoyed other shops, and in fact I called around to many places, and my questions were met with sketchy answers like " I can't give you a price for sure, we gotta see what it is all about" or some other nonsense. ASAP gave me the EXACT price including taxes right over the phone. I dropped it off on a Friday night around closing time, got a call at around 10am the next day saying it was ready. Due to shopping didn't get to the shop to pick it up till around closing time again, she still came out in the cold to show my girlfriend how to work the remote starter. I will be getting my 4 runner done here as well as soon as I can arrange to drop it off. *Just a note to other reviews that I saw that made me almost not go here..... Car starters are not cheap! If you see a "Groupon" or some other offer for 5 dollars....I mean come on... we all know its not going to be the price they quote, that's how they get you... do your research like an adult should. Blaming asap because the price is different based on your car is not there fault.. its yours. Call before you go. Look into other places and see how they compare...parts, labor, warranty......you get what you pay for!! I did my girlfriend's 2007 Yaris it ended up being around $300 all in with 2 smaller sized remotes.

Only 2 very small negatives.. The guy working the desk when I dropped car off was not the most pleasant guy in the world (Pauly "D-ish") the kind of guy I am used to though- being that I am from Brooklyn NY, so didn't bother me. Sure he is a decent guy, just comes off miserable. The "receiver" on the car is mounted just under the rear view mirror in the middle of the windshield. It was much bulkier (half the size of like an ez pass thingy thank god its black not white) than I thought....was wondering why it could not be mounted somewhere else. Doesn't bother my girlfriend so is not...

Went there with a Groupon Coupon-I expected to pay $119.00 as that was what the Groupon was for. I go to pay and I'm told that they wanted $249.00!! When I questioned as to why, I was told that the one installed had a "lifetime" warranty. I complained and was finally charged $185.00, still more than the Groupon. When I finally get home, I read the Groupon and right there on the Groupon, it says, "lifetime warranty!! Also, right on the booklet they gave me, it states, 2 transmitters. I was given 1. Filed a report with the BBB and also disputing the charge on my credit card. Biggest bait and switch EVER..of course, when I called, they told me to come back and they would put the $119.00 one in!! Yea, like I would trust these people to touch my car again!! Had they put in the correct one to begin with, none of this would have occurred... NO company has the right to put in something the customer NEVER requested.. NEVER was given a second remote and you KNOW IT--yes, I did miss my Monday appointment and you took me Tuesday but I waited 4 hours which is not uncommon because the 2 people in the waitting room with me were there just as long-- Funny how you respond to every negative review but calling us liars. Says a lot about you and your company. You people are the biggest scam artists EVER and you are the LIAR--..What a shady business you people run..and there was no miscommunication on my part-I went there for a 119.00 Groupon and you overcharged me for something that may or may not have been put in my car. I read several other reviews-funny how we all are saying the same thing. That we were OVERCHARGED and then called liars. Funny how there are so many of us saying the same thing about this shady company...Must be some truth for people that don't know each other to say the same things about your shady company...Think about it..Oldest con in the world-bait and switch..That's why you never charged my credit card when I first called to make the appointment..and now you threatening to take ME to court--good,...
