I went in a few weeks ago and spoke with the person working. Asked about what new stereo would work in my car. It is a single din and I wanted something that I could use car play and some other options. He said they didn't really carry options like that anymore. So he told me that I should buy somewhere and they could install it for me. Fine, I go and order what had some nice reviews and the features I was looking for. I called and set an appointment for the install and bring in the radio to be installed, they seem none to happy as I was told it was a jigsaw they had to put together. I leave it with them to install. Before I get back to work I get a call saying the install was going to be 200 more than I was quoted do to the fact of a tougher install? Not having much choice at this point I agreed. They call later say all done I come to pick up and pay my bill, much higher than quoted, but I pay. Then the person checking me out says next time to buy from them, to which I explained that it wasn't an option I was presented with. Will never be back or recommend. I hate leaving reviews like this, have only done it 2 times. Just felt like it might be helpful to someone in the future. Full disclosure, the radio and the install job looks very good.

Great service troubleshooting my Apple CarPlay and fixing the display. Professional and fast and got me in right when I had made my appointment.

Yesterday, my remote car starter would not start my car (no pun intended) and I had no idea what was wrong. Found BOOMER MCLOUD @ CAR ESSENTIALS online; drove the car to their place of business, BRICE repaired the starter and in less than 30 minutes I was on my way back home. He was professional and proficient, and I would not hesitate to use this service again!

They installed a remote car starter for me, the service was excellent at the Central Ave location, was very pleased with the gentleman that made my appointment, they were booked for 3 weeks ahead but they got me in same day. I wouldn't go anywhere else, service was excellent

Do you sell 2017 honda accord car speakers(JBL/ other best ones) and need to be installed. How much you charge for?

I'm sure they have speakers for your car, but you have to go there to LISTEN to them, isn't that what matters most? I bought a killer system there by visiting and listening instead of worrying about how cheap it could be. This place does quality work, talk with them, they are easy to get along with.

Hi how are you. I'm looking for a start remount control for a Nissan Rough Select 2015.how many??

Are there any specific guidelines on the coat donation for discounts? For example I might have one with a broken zipper or a tear in the padding where the stuffing is pushing out. Is there a limit to how many someone can bring? I might have 2 or 3.

The coats are to be considered as New or Like New condition. You may donate as many coats as you desire but only one coat qualifies for the discount per vehicle

How much does it cost to replace the button to start your car on your keychain

New aftermarket remotes cost $50 unfortunately you can't replace just one botton in most cases. Stop in one of the stores and we can see if it is repairable if it isn't it would be a matter of getting a new one.

How much do your car starters cost and how much do you charge to put them in.
