Car electronics installation for Cochrane drivers

Cochrane is the longest trip of the areas we serve, and we would rather say so plainly than pretend otherwise. What makes it work is knowing the price and the plan before you set out — your specific year, make and model, quoted over the phone.

Where the shop actually is

East towards the city, north onto Stoney Trail, then east along Country Hills Boulevard to 38 Street NE. The bays are industrial units; park in front of ours.

Calgary, AB T3N 1Z2
Monday to Saturday, 10:30 a.m. – 6:30 p.m. · Closed Sunday

We have no Cochrane location. Cochrane is its own town; the installs are done in northeast Calgary, at the address above, and nowhere else. Nothing is done at the roadside or on a driveway — the job needs a bench, proper light and the trim off.

What we fit

Every brand, including anything you bought yourself. The price is settled on your vehicle before you travel.

Remote starters

Wired into the vehicle’s own data bus, not spliced into it.

View service

Dash cams & backup cameras

Hardwired to a fused supply so parking mode does not flatten the battery.

View service

Car audio

Speakers, amplifiers and subwoofers built around the doors rather than bolted into them.

View service

CarPlay & Android Auto

Keep the factory screen where the vehicle allows it, or fit a new head unit.

View service

Auto electrical

Parasitic drain, wiring faults, fuses and accessories that cut out. 12-volt work only.

View service

Vehicle security

Alarms, shock sensing and immobilisation — on their own or alongside a starter.

View service

Ambient lighting

Interior lighting that looks like it left the factory that way.

View service

Headlight upgrades

Where the housing suits it — beam pattern matters more than brightness.

Plan the whole list before you set out

From Cochrane the arithmetic changes. Two separate visits is a lot of highway for work that could have been done together, so it is worth thinking in terms of everything the vehicle needs rather than the one thing that prompted the call.

A starter and a camera share the same dash disassembly. Deadening and speakers belong in the same appointment. A diagnostic is cheap while the car is already here. Tell us the whole list when you book and we will say honestly which parts are worth combining and which are not.

What Cochrane customers ask for most

  • Remote car starters
  • Car audio installation

Quoted per vehicle, on the phone, before you commit to the drive.

Questions from Cochrane

Is Cochrane too far to be worth it?

Yes. Cochrane is a separate town, so there is no shop there — the work is done at our one location in northeast Calgary, #129 10985 38 St NE.

Can you confirm the price before I make the trip?

That is exactly what the phone quote is for. Give us the year, make, model and what you are after, and you will have the price and the likely time before you leave.

Can everything be done in one visit?

Usually, if you tell us the whole list when you book. From Cochrane the planning matters more than anywhere else, so it is worth being thorough on the call.

Do I need an appointment?

Yes — and from this distance, never come without one. Book online or call (368) 210-7200 and the bay is reserved for your vehicle.

Can you fit parts I already bought?

Often, provided they suit the vehicle. Send the models before the drive: finding out on arrival that a part will not work is a wasted trip, and that is avoidable.

Pricing, turnaround and what happens on the day are answered in the full FAQ.
