Worked with CC via text to get my 2020 Street a glide in for some audio work. They installed Diamond Audio amp and speakers and CarPlay adapter. It was done before promised, was able to pickup and pay after hours. Highly recommended!!!

My mom and I received a car starter. We were referred by Steven! Great service all around. Jesse was great to us, the two installers explained everything to us and Jesse showed my mom how to work the starter. My car starter works from an app on the phone that Jesse recommended and I love it. Great customer service!

I called this place asking if they can do installation for an aftermarket audio systems, the brand is Hieha. They answer was: NO we dont install those here, in a very rude way. I said ok thank you and they hang up, nothing else. My conclusion: those guys doesnt have idea of what is customers service and being professional. I will not recommend those guys not even try to call them.

NEVER get your remote starter installed here!! We spent almost $700 on two remote starters and the night of the install my car experienced an electrical surge.. I called them next day and they insisted there was nothing wrong with their install and to keep an eye on it, and if anything else came up to go to a dealer to get it diagnosed because it must have been something different. A few days later my fuel door stops working when i needed to get gas, so i had to pry it open to get it filled. Two days later I bring the car to the dealer like they said and they come up with the remote starter install being done incorrectly with wires swapped. After me sitting at the dealership for 3 hours, they refused to cover the diagnosis fee I was charged when I called Capital Customs to tell them about what was found. They changed their story and say how i should’ve brought it to them first to diagnose… After another half hour of them fixing their botched install, they also stated the collateral damage of me having to damage the fuel door to get it open was like me locking my keys in the car and breaking the window to get in. Maybe they’re right, it was my fault for going to them to have my remote starter installed for them to then cause my fuel door to not work and all this other drama. It was all so unprofessional and the price was definitely too good to be true. Take your money elsewhere!!

Top notch install, equipment and above all 5 STAR SERVICE. Capital Customs stands by their work. Installed an entire sound system in my Key West Center Console and it sounds amazing. Can’t recommend these guys enough for any of your audio needs!

Capital Customs stands by their work, even after many years. Jesse, the owner, installed LED headlights in my car, and after two years, one low beam failed. I stopped by on a busy day in June 2021, and Jesse and his co-workers made time for an immediate installation, at no charge for parts and labor! This is truly exceptional service, and it is a delight to work with a business so committed to taking care of their customers, long after the sale. (DH)

Great service and employees. I had a head unit installed. Nothing to fancy, but was treated first class. They noticed two small parts I was going to install on my jeep later and they installed them for me at no charge to help me out. It was a great surprise. They go above and beyond

Most standoffish dude I’ve ever dealt with likes to talk over you Big egos don’t build good stereos I would recommend that anybody that likes to actually be heard before they’re told they don’t know what they’re talking about not go here this dude just lost 10K in upgrades

I have never, not once in my life, experienced customer service like this. I sent an email at 9pm on a Sunday night because I was stumped on an audio problem and Im 3 hours away. Ive never met Jesse, nor he me. He calls me back 10 min later and gave me advice. 2 days later, I text him at my wits end. He walked me, step by step, how to fix my problem (via pics, guidance, etc) until past midnight. And the problem is solved. Ive never been so frustrated with something, and then so relieved iny life. 87 degrees tomorrow and I wanted to listen to my music while riding...thanks to Jesse, I can. Making the trip to his shop just to thank him on person and get some add-ons for my bike. If youre in the tri-state area, go to Capital Customs and see Jesse...you will NOT be disappointed.

I never ever post anything good or bad about a business. I drove over 200 miles to have my stereo looked at on my bike.i communicated a few times with the owner previously before making the trip.i get there a hour early and I get the bike off the trailer and he gets it right in to work on it.less than 20 minutes later he tells me that a few wires had been mixed up when the battery was changed. He straightened it right out and gets it working. I said to Jesse the owner how much to I owe you? He said to me you drove two hundred miles to get here you dont owe me anything? Huh? Unheard of???. Great business with very good people. Hard to believe there are still people in this world that are not out to take advantage of others.

If you live in the Capital Region dont even hesitate to go to Capital Customs if you are looking for quality work. Billy and Jesse do exceptional installation work but more importantly will give you great customer service. I just bought a new car that had a factory audio system that was extremely underwhelming but thanks to Jesse and Billy my car now sounds fantastic, all musical instruments can be distinctly heard with clarity and power. Most of all though is the great customer service that I mentioned above, Billy and Jesse took time to listen and understand what I needed. Much appreciated guys!!!

Thanks to Jesse, my 10+ year old car has a modern dash. Quickly and expertly installed a giant pile of parts and custom dash pieces that I had compiled. Also responsive before, during, and after as well as giving good instructions when I wanted to make some personal adjustments. Will return for any other services he provides and that I need. Thanks again!

Capital Customs is the absolute best custom car electronics company in the Capital District! Capital Customs not only has the best prices but they also do the best work! Capital Customs installed a radio for me in my vehicle and they were much more affordable then all other custom car electronics companies in the area. Also I was having an issue with my factory roof marker light kit on my truck and I stopped by Capital Customs and they were able to fix it perfectly, and even better FREE OF CHARGE!! I strongly recommend Capital Customs to all people looking to get stereos, starters, amps, decks or any other car work that Capital Customs does! I will always use Capital Customs!!!

Best experience I’ve ever had when it comes to radio shopping and installation. Jesse took awesome care of me and my car. These guys are very professional and knowledgeable. I have a used car that had some extra wiring issues going on and Jesse cleaned it all up for me without hesitation, something he clearly didn’t have to do. I’m loving my new Pioneer radio! Jesse you ROCK! I’ll never ever go anywhere else. I’ll recommend you guys to everyone. You are by far the BEST!!!

Great Experience! Took the time to listen to what I wanted to achieve with my car audio upgrade and then explained the options in detail. After a glitch a few days down the road after installation, Jesse accommodated me that day and re-did the job to perfection!!!! I could not say more about the team at Capital Customs

Review №49

Capital Customs is sooo much more than a car stereo store.I had a headlamp that needed replacing. They had the broken one out and the new one installed in record time. Their prices were very reasonable. The customer service was polite, courteous and knowledgeable about my issue and others as well. There was Mercedes getting tint on the windows while I was there, I couldnt help noticing the craftsmanship. Definitely experience there. So guess what Ill be asking Capital Customs to do next?? Call ahead with your automotive issues... I bet they can help you out!!!! 👍👍

What a fantastic experience!! Jesse’s expertise is unsurpassed by the competition. He accommodated my schedule, did not try to oversell me anything and set me up with a great stereo that exceeded my expectations. And to top it off, he even fixed an annoying rattle coming from the hatch/trunk at my request!! A Five-Star experience all the way!!

Headlights Upgrade: Big Improvement!I purchased high and low beam halogen headlights from Jesse at Capital Customs on February 28, 2019, and he installed them in my 2016 Hyundai Azera These headlights greatly improve visibility over the original equipment headlights provided by Hyundai. On August 19, 2019, the ballasts failed in the headlights. Jesse was kind enough to replace the entire headlight assemblies, both high and low beams, and install them, at no charge. He also adjusted the aim of the headlights to insure they point as intended, again, at no charge. Jesse stands behind the products he sells and installs, and he is an honest businessman. I highly recommend his shop. Dan H.

Jesse does great work! I was looking for somewhere to get new tires mounted on my motorcycle 2 days before Americade. Everyone else around told me there is no way to get them done in 2 days. I called Capital Customs up dropped the bike off and a few hours later Jesse was calling me telling me that my my bike was ready to be picked up! I recommend this shop to anyone who is looking for great work at an honest price!
