    Hello,

    Newbie here. I was wondering if anyone has a recommendation for an audio shop in the Phoenix area for my 99 Tacoma. I'm upgrading to a single din bluetooth system from my current one which sucks to say the least. Anyone here on this forum with experience that might be recommended works for me as well.

    Thanks!

    Welcome to TW! :hattip: :wave:

    Order from Crutchfield and install yourself; Crutchfield purchases come with vehicle-specific install instructions!

    ^^^ I should've mentioned that I'm not very handy and would prefer to have someone with experience do this on my behalf. Thank You though!

    Unique Car Audio on Elliot between AZ Ave and McQueen. They are currently doing a custom install on my 67 mustang.
    Sean is the owner, nice guy to work with.

    I'll second Unique Car Audio. I had them quote a remote start install on my wife's car, and got a tour of the shop while I was there. Very clean, organized, and they do very nice work.

    If you want a 16 year old kid with no experience installing your stereo system then go to Best Buy. I personally wouldn't let them adjust the volume in my truck let alone install anything.

    I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you. But if you have no other options but to let someone else do it....it's a option.

    Much like instant oil change places. No way I would take my vehicles to one. But for someone who is not able to do it themselves....it's an option

    Ist gen stero has got to be the simplest install ever. You can buy a premade harness from crutch field and its literally a bolt and click affair.

    This.

    You don’t need to be handy. You can pay a little extra for a premade harness that makes it extremely simple.
