I recently got a radio installed . So far I’m loving it . Since my other radio went out . The only I noticed were the light to the gear shifter wasn’t on . I called and Mike answered and promptly and told me to bring my car back on Tuesday . They have good customer service . If there is an issue . They correct the issue at hand . I love the fact I can listen to music again. Thanks Mike … See you Tuesday after 4:30.

I recently purchased led headlights and had them installed here. Mike installed them and adjusted the headlights and it came out fantastic! My son borrowed my car that night and he couldn't believe the difference from the old halogen headlights. He told me he was able to see a deer in the road and avoid it because of the headlights. The job was done quickly and professionally at a affordable cost. I highly recommend this business for all your auto upgrades.

I had a 4pm appointment and I was promptly greeted by the staff and confirmed my appointment, as I sat down and before I could pull up a game on my phone I heard my car start, the technician was already in my car driving it into the shop. Due to the technicians training and professionalism he was able to troubleshoot my existing remote starter (that Kartel had installed over 20 years ago) and found a blow fuse, Instead of easily trying to sell me a new remote starter he simply changed a fuse and my problem was solved. The technician also showed me how to adjust a certain feature of my stereo I couldn't figure out. To me his honesty and professionalism speaks volumes about his business. I recommended Kartel 20 years ago and I recommend them again today. Good job Kartel.

Won a complete motorcycle audio system from a raffle sponsored by Kar Tele. Met with Mike to go over the plan for the install on my 21' Road Glide. My OCD makes it hard to trust anyone working on my bike but after talking with Mike, realizing his vast audio knowledge , attention to detail and meticulousness I felt comfortable . End result was a flawless install and a great product too. I'm a customer for life to say the least.

This place is great. Always friendly and helpful. I didn't put my car starter here yet they helped me here with my issues. Cause obviously the other place is too far away. But now knowing about the care they put into their work here I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I asked mike to help me install an aftermarket head unit in my older Volvo . He said yes even though he knew that it could be a pain to install because even though they say the unit is “plug and play” they never are and that was to be true for this one as well . Mike is by far the most experienced car audio installer. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing he is well knowledged and very methodical, and it seemed like no challenge was too much , every time. I thought we hit a dead end. He pulled something out of his magic hat and made it work. I can’t say enough good things about this guy if you’re looking to have some car audio / lighting installed and done right look no further than Kartele. I promise you will be more than satisfied ! Thanks Mike !

This shop was highly recommended by a friend. I was impressed by their audio system install so when it came time for a starter to get installed in my BMW I knew who to trust. The install was done professionally and clean. Not many shops install starters in BWM''s but KarTele is the place to go for all your needs when it comes to BMW's they know what they're doing to fully integrate the system with your factory remotes to make it seamless. My wife is loving her new toy. Thanks again..

I cannot express how grateful I am for the above and beyond service I received at KarTele. I made a huge mistake and ordered a product (and had it installed) only to find out I truly disliked it and they made the whole situation beyond right. I thought I was out a great deal of money but I called and explained why I was unhappy and they worked with me to fix the situation. I'm stilled floored how happy I am still. Aside from the great service I absolutely love my new UConnect screen!! It was meticulously installed.

Mike is straightforward, transparent, knowledgeable and honest! He delivers audiophile grade products with incredibly clean installs. He installed a beautiful sound system in my 2017 Ford Explorer Sport, with Sony mids and highs, a JL stealthbox and Arc Audio subwoofer (the JL sub was blown from the factory) with an Arc Audio amplifier to tie it all together. We spent a good part of the morning on Sunday fine tuning everything to make sure I was happy, and replacing the sub at the last minute to make sure the system was absolutely perfect. I couldn't be happier! Because of how high grade the sound system was, it prompted me to convert my wireless Android Auto Spotify streaming service (which we noticed was distorting with the Arc Audio software when plugged in to his computer) to Tidal HiRes lossless and force my Android phone (Samsung S24 Ultra) to not convert the signal (USB Audio Player PRO, Bit-Perfect On) so my amplifier DAC did the conversion directly. What a difference! I'll definitely be coming back to him when Wavtech releases their 10" subwoofer so we can see if we can get some more thump out of this stealthbox!

Professional and extremely knowledgeable. Had my remote start installed here and it's worked perfectly except for one exception which was most likely a fault of my own. Went in to have it fixed and they warrantied it for no charge bc they installed it. I won't go anywhere else for remote starters on any of my vehicles! They also do audio up grades, light upgrades pretty and window tints.

From the first visit to Mikes shop I was super comfortable with agreeing to have him work on my brand new 23 Tahoe. Had him upgrade every speaker as well as install new subwoofer. I must say this project wasn’t easy my truck through countless obstacles at us because of the Bose system and it being so new in the end Mike made sure everything was perfect!! Will recommend 100x over and will continue to be a customer of his

i recently went to kar tele to have my windows tinted and a remote starter installed in my 2024 toyota corolla. Both jobs were done in a professional manner and on time. Mike answered all my questions and explained everything to me that i needed to know about the window tint and remote starter. i would highly recommend kar tele for all your auto needs.

Excellent owner who seems dedicated to doing the right thing and doing the job the right way. My remote starter was installed quickly and neatly but Mike also took the time to explain all the nuances when finished. I will definitely bring my next vehicle here as well. Thank you.
