    The final stereo he offered me
    Paige K.

    Where to begin with my experience here! I would give 0 stars if I could, and I am starting to think the great reviews for Manny are some of his friends. My experience here was HORRIBLE, as Manny immediately gave me the impression that he was a great scam artist. I asked about 3 different stereos for my 2016 Nissan Sentra. Every time I'd ask about one on the wall he'd come out with a different stereo (more expensive ones) and some fake excuse on why I couldn't have the one I wanted. Some of his excuses were: my car is super difficult to replace stereos and it won't work, he's out of stock, Bose stereos "aren't good," and so many more lies. He acted very shady, when we asked him to price match he would look on a weird website and look under "Audi compatible stereos" then claim they didn't have the inventory to match my Nissan. When we pointed out the Audi selection on his computer he just ignored us and turned the screen away. He claimed my Nissan had some of the most difficult power wiring issues and that a replacement may not work, then he suggested we pay him half in cash now and mumbled something about credit cards having a hard time with refunds, but that if the install didn't work he could take the stereo back out and give me my money back? He then told me my price was $652 and when we asked to see the invoice he said we could only have a picture of it and scrolled up quickly so I couldn't see the bottom lines and their charges. I'm pretty sure he was making up charges as he went. My brother is an IT manager and when he recognized the website manny was using to buy the "necessary" parts from for my oh so difficult Nissan Sentra, he pulled up the exact parts such as the harness on his phone which showed for cheaper than Mannys quote and asked if he could price match to it (since he claimed he could price match) and Manny just ignored the question altogether. In the end when making the invoice to give me a quote he even had to ask again what type of car I had because he couldn't remember if it was Nissan or not. Funny when it was emphasized how difficult of an install it was for my car. The sales associate working on the floor in the beginning of my experience originally was very certain the radio wouldn't be difficult, even saying the opposite of some of the things Manny claimed. However once Manny came back from his smoke break and took over our transaction while acting suspicious, the associate seemed to catch on and got real quiet and let Manny take over. I was in there for about an hour and although I knew from the jump what he was pulling, I decided to just let it play out and see how far he'd take it. Eventually it became too much as more and more things were lied about and the stories began to overlap incorrectly, and I asked him what he thought of Best Buy. He said they have the same prices. I took a picture of his fake invoice on his screen and then a picture of the stereo, and left. I drove down the street to the Best Buy on McDowell and 99th ave and was welcomed by a great associate who told me that Nissans are easy, that any stereo fits my car it just needs a face plate to help the extra space, and found me a beautiful JVC and all the needed equipment/install/wheel control inclusion/backup camera all for $360! That's half what Manny tried to steal, and the stereo I got at Best Buy is newer than the one audio express tried to give me. Looking back I realized Manny suggesting we pay half cash and half card in case we want him to "take out the stereo due to the wiring difficulty" and he'd refund was probably how he makes a living. I think the owner should check out his invoices compared to what gets put in his POS system. Seems like a lot of cash may be going under the table. I'll include pics of the invoice (notice how it's scrolled to the top not showing the complete list of charges that equates to $650) and the outdated stereo I was told was my best option. Overall: go to Best Buy! You won't get scammed there.

    I think I went to their relocated shop on 75th Ave & Thomas, but I just got a new stereo receiver, and some speakers for my doors.

After the install: I lost power to my 12V lighter socket, so I couldn't charge my phone. He mostly likely tapped into the same circuit as the lighter socket, causing power loss (Yeah. He didn't warn me about that before the install!) The audio was also making intermittent Bluetooth pairing failures. I would be driving and then music would stop and start again. Bluetooth phone calls stopped working--only music streamed. The install skipped key components I provided, including the fuse tap, LOC, and amp integration What I learned--and what others should know: The 3.5mm aux jack on the BTC-Five is audio-only and doesn't support calls To restore full functionality, the fuse tap must be moved to a different ACC slot so the lighter circuit isn't interrupted. For Bluetooth calls, you need to use the BTC-Five's RCA outputs and route them through a head unit or amp that supports hands-free calling. If I had known all this upfront, I probably would've skipped the install entirely and just kept using my regular USB-C to 3.5mm Audio Aux Cable Adapter. It was simpler, reliable, and didn't disable anything in my car. No wonder the guy had a weird vibe! I would have given them 5 stars if they had wired correctly, but the job was rushed and sloppy. He didn't create a solution. He created a problem! Now I'm going to have to get my brother to help me fix this. He said the tech most likely installed the tap with only one fuse (for the BTC-Five). Or inserted it backwards, cutting off power to the original circuit. Or used a single-slot tap, which reroutes power entirely to the new device. This experience taught me how to reclaim my install and turn shortcuts into teachable upgrades. If you're integrating amps or planning full audio control, skip the aux hack and wire it properly. I wasn't impressed with this install. What a total waste of money!!!!!!

Unfortunately, after the installation, I discovered that most of it wasn't working correctly. The backup camera wasn't connected at all, and when I reached out for help, the installer stopped responding. At that point, I was out the money I had paid--including a tip--and had to find someone else to fix it before moving across the country. One of the main reasons I purchased this system was for safety during my cross-country drive. Since the Bluetooth phone connection wasn't working, I was forced to hold my phone against my chest under my seatbelt while driving--not safe and certainly not legal. To make matters worse, several installers refused to even look at my Android-based unit. They told me those systems are usually installed incorrectly and rarely work properly. Thankfully, they were wrong. I took my car to Custom Car Concepts, and from the moment I arrived, the experience was completely different. Mike got me in right away, properly installed the backup camera, and made sure everything else was working exactly as it should. Did I have to pay to have it fixed? Of course. But the price was more than reasonable, and the work was completed quickly and professionally. To say I was impressed--and relieved--would be an understatement. This is absolutely the place to go if you need car audio or electronics work done correctly. I can't thank Mike and the team enough for helping me out when I really needed it.

What stood out to me even more was their service recovery. There was a small item I had requested that was initially overlooked.

He was genuinely apologetic, took full accountability, and made sure it was addressed without hesitation. That kind of ownership goes a long way.

I requested a quote online over the weekend and received a call Monday morning. John set me up with an appointment and ordered the windshield then and there. What was the most helpful that he called my insurer while I was on the phone with him. My insurer told me that the crack had to be larger than a silver dollar to cover replacement. They went on to say that Blue Chip was not a partner of their insurance company. I asked the insurer if that meant that they wouldn't cover the windshield if Blue Chip replaced it. John promptly jumped in and told me that the windshield would be covered 100%, but that the warranty would be covered by Blue Chip rather than my insurer. I appreciated the clarification. He told me that there would be zero out of pocket cost to me. The insurer told me that the repair would be covered and John did the rest (which was literally everything). Blue Chip replaced the windshield right in my driveway, again, at no cost to me. The service tech, Dan, was on-time and went out of his way to answer my questions, like calibration of the camera. Since my vehicle was newer, it had a camera for emergency braking and adaptive cruise control, which required calibration by an authorized tech when the windshield was replaced. Blue Chip took care of that as well. Dan showed me where the camera was mounted and why it needed to be calibrated with the windshield change. Dan was professional, competent, fast and friendly. In the end, I got a shiny new windshield installed by professionals at no cost to me. I have found my permanent glass company!
