Upgraded the speakers and added an amp and some sound deadening to my Golf. On the first pass, the new setup had better definition, but I was finding some vocal frequencies abrasive at higher volumes. I mentioned it to them, and at first they said there wasn't much to be done without a better equalizer, so I was a bit disappointed. But then I brought it back in for more sound deadening so my door wouldn't rattle when the bass got boomy, and Peter did some more fine-tuning on the speakers while he was in there and oh WOW, did he dial it in. It sounds fantastic now, exactly what I was looking for, and I am very very happy driving around now. read more

Reasonably priced, honest, fast installation and great service.

We like to support local business's and as a garage in their neighborhood we checked RPM's reviews and ordered headlight lenses for a customer on June 10, 2020. Only 2 were available, so 2 more were ordered and I paid for all of them right away even though I was not asked to. Once I received the others my customer made an appointment & I tried to install the lenses which did not fit at all. I went back to RPM and was told that I would not get a refund as it was a special order & over 30 days, they did not even attempt to look for a replacement or in anyway offer help. The only reason it was over 30 days (July 30, 2020) was because I was waiting 3 weeks for delivery of a stock item. I have been in business for over 35 years and never had a problem returning parts that didn't work or fit, I will never deal with RPM again and neither will any other shop we know. read more

I needed to get a stereo installed in my car. I called a couple of places and some of the prices I was quoted especially one was pretty crazy. They were asking for almost $300 bucks. All I needed was to get the deck installed, I had the stereo already. Anyways, I looked around on Yelp and found RPM, it's quite close to my place as well. I asked for a quote through Yelp and they responded either the next day or the same day, can't remember. It was a lot cheaper than the quote I got from other places. So I booked an appointment with them, I put down a deposit with them and paid them in full after they finished the job. They did an excellent job, They told me it would take a couple of hours or something but they did it faster than that. Good service, professional workmanship. It I ever need to get something like this done again this is the place I'm gonna take it. read more

Super happy with the team of pros and install. I felt the guys gave me great value for a pumpin' sound system as well as upgraded my alarm system at no cost as they never had the system they quoted in stock. I knew they were legit when their estimate came back quick and broken down properly. Thanks so much for your hard work gentlemen. You'll be seeing me again! read more

This is the worst service I've ever had. They said drop the car off at 10am so I did and they didn't even open till 11 so I threw my keys into their mail slot and went to work. They called me and told me to pick it up at 4:30 so I can someone drive me as I took time off work to pick up my car when I get there I get snotty employee just tell me it's not ready. No head up on how long or where there at just takes off into the back room. I sit there for 2!!!!! HOURS!!!! And finally after sitting in a silent room with no music no tv NO HEAT! Freezing they finally say 10 more min. The business closed at 5pm it's now 6:15pm and the 10 min has passed. Still not done my car and the only excuse they had for taking the entire day Plus an extra hour and a half was there was a part that took them 2 hours. So the 2 hours I've been sitting here? They don't communicate to you they're rude when talking to you and they don't give a shit I just took time off work to be here and had to sit here for 2 hours. ... IM ATILL SITTING HERE listening to them still messing around with the car I don't think they started it till 4:30! They didn't even discount the service in anyway to apologize for wasting my time and not only that making me take time off work to come sit in a frozen room. Next... google reviews. read more

RPM Electronics - Auto Parts & Supplies Near Me - New Westminster, British Columbia

I am so, so glad I came to RPM. I initially shopped for quotes at Visions and SoundsGood, and was told a simple, although custom- install job would cost upwards of $200. I called RPM, and was quoted HALF of what other installers wanted. Not only that, the job came in UNDER the initial quote and I wasn't overcharged. AND, they fit me in for the install minutes after I dropped in, between the appointments they already had. Everyone was so helpful and knowledgeable. This was the best install experience I've ever had. I will absolutely come back to RPM, they've earned my highest recommendation. read more

Great service! Honest, efficient, excellent communication. Installed new head unit in my old Porsche last year. Downsold me when I suggested new speakers and said mine were in good shape. Today, had a broken wire on piece of work equipment - fixed it in 15 minutes and refused any $. Great outfit. Thanks gents! read more

Scheduled for 2 hours and they finished in 1.5 hours. I had my dash cams set up by the crew in this shop and the service was fantastic. Unfortunately, it was a tad cold in the office, but you don't have to stay to wait for the installation to finish. The staff was very knowledgeable and explained the installation and other upgrades without any sales pressure. They were also very friendly. I highly recommend RPM electronics and I'm recommending others to get there dash cams installed by RPM electronics. read more

These guys made great suggestions, and even though it was more than I thought it would be, the prices are fair, and I don't think they charged the full amount for labour and stuck to the initial quote they gave when I called the first time, even after a half dozen conversations. Nice job! read more

Went in to RPM about an iPod/Aux integration to my Mazda. I tried going to other places, but was informed that they could not accommodate my request. After a few weeks of searching, I contacted David at RPM. David answered all my questions in a professional manner and gave me a very fair quote. The job took about 5-10 minutes longer than I was promised but that didn't matter too much. The sound quality of the install and product are absolutely amazing! read more

These guys are awesome. So helpful and friendly. Was able to get my car in and out for an install and the job completed was very professional. I'll continue to do business with them in the future. read more

Had some work done here recently, they provided excellent service, with very knowledgeable staff. I had my interior lighting converted to LED's while I was there as well at a reasonable rate, with again excellent prompt service. read more

These punks don't know what they are doing. They have no clue how to install correctly. Do not bother with these shoemakers.

I discovered RPM while shopping for a dash cam last year. I researched different models online and found a good deal on their website so I booked an appointment. Their service was excellent, staff were very professional and friendly. There were multiple issues which resulted in further appointments but they were all related to the unit itself, not the installation. When I reported the issues they were very accommodating and fit me in as soon as possible. Ended up replacing the unit with a new one. If you're shopping for a dash cam I highly recommend RPM. I also recommend purchasing a memory card and cell battery through them. They know which brands of memory cards are compatible with each unit (one of the issues I had, the memory card I originally purchased was not compatible and resulted in frequent overheating). A cell battery is pricey but worth it, eliminates any possibility of the unit draining your car battery. Five star business. read more

Had day time running lights installed in my BMW and lights burned out 2x in 6 months...2nd time was replaced under 1 year warranty. Guys are OK there, but obviously there are quality issues with their parts. My warranty is still valid, but frankly I rather simply go to another place and pay again and not run these problems and headaches. read more

Very professional. Good prices and good work. Had my HID's completely redone on my camaro. The first HID job was a nightmare. It was completely removed and installed professionally. Good prices and really good service. Taking my car back to get headlight resealed. Would definitely recommend this place. read more

Got and amp sub combo from them and had fuse changed. I noticed when I changed my oil that my fuse holder was melted and almost started a fire and as well my amp heated up so much that it would melt your skin off and kept popping in n out of protect mode. I called them numerous times and only got the run around and blaming the existing wiring in the car and told me to rewire the power to the amp. So instead of listening to that I wired a new fuse and fuse holder. My problem with the amp overheating and going into protect mode and the melting of the fuse holder and wires connected to it were gone and I noticed the subs performing better I checked the connections to the old melted fuse holder and they were fine. I'm not a car audio technician by any means but I don't understand why I was suggested to rip out the wiring in my car before doing what I did before hand. It would be nice as well that when u call someone who does work on your car the first thing they say is it's not their fault and if they thought it was going to potentially case a fire or damage not to do the work or accept money and if they didn't know that it was going to cause a fire maybe they shouldn't be working there no offence . Not going back and I have done my own research and watch tutorials that I won't let anyone do my car audio again read more

I was looking for a shop that can install hid kit on my car since the low and high beam are same light bulb , I found these guys on the internet and went there since they were relatively close to where I live ,( huge mistake), they installed the kit and after 2 months one of the lights stopped working went back there they fixed it and after a week it stopped again , I went back there again ,got fixed then again same issue over and over and every employee that works there have different knowledge and kept blaming one another for not doing the proper job , they attached halogen light to work for my running day time and also for my high beam, things seems to be fine but the halogen light is absolutely useless and when I turn the high beam on I can only see 10 yards with those light , my warranty will be over in about couple of months but I would much rather to go else where to solve this issue , I lost so many days of work and money to go back to this shop , they have no idea what they are doing and they sell al these low quality accessories made in china to the customers . I told them to remove everything and refund my money but they wont so now I have to pay another shop to fix this issue. I will never ever recommend anyone to go to RPM for sure . guys like them make us to not trust any other shops and I'm already facing that problem to where to go and who the heck to I trust . wrong people in wrong business . I live in Vancouver and my location shows USA which is so strange :( read more

I had a car alarm\starter installed in my 2001 windstar and the install took about 4 hrs to complete but as soon as i got it home the alarm started going off every 30 minutes, had to rebook it in the next weekend took another 8 hrs to try and sort it out same situation, booked it in again they had it for another 8hr period they finally said it was a confusing issue and they would look into it for me and refunded the alarm portion of the install and disabled the alarm but the remote start works fine (Still waiting on an answer to the issue so i can get it fixed properly. they also installed HID's in my van and they work great just having ongoing issues with the alarm/starter combo i should have just gone with the starter read more

First time having a car receiver installed. Checked out several places including Visions and Performance in North Van. Prices were crazy, ranging from $150-$190 for a single DIN receiver (simple). Called RPM yesterday, booked me in at 11AM this morning. They were ready for me when I came in. Job took an hour and for $80 as promised. The fellow who installed it also walked me through some of the common functions on my new receiver (JVC KD-X330BTS). Excellent service at a good price. The capper: they use soldering on the wire connections rather than the cheaper plastic or nylon connectors. I could have gone with other techs on Craigslist but they're freelancers or hobbyists, not sure that they will be around tomorrow if something had gone wrong. Highly recommended. read more
