Meggamaxx

Update OCT 2015
I went back to Maggamaxx as my rear window tint was bubbling up (this tint was done in 2005) and driving me crazy. I schedule the tinting as as expected, the guys at MaggaMaxx were on it! They did a fantastic job at a reasonable price. It’s refreshing to use a local business that is consistently excellent. Keep up the great work/​service guys!

Dear Car Stereo and Electronic enthusiast. You need to know about MeggaMax. They are the only company out there, anywhere, that knows what they are doing. They are ONLY interested in getting you the worlds best sound without having to spend a penny more than you have to. Case in point, by using the Wavebox Sub-​Woofer speaker system you can literally make your car stereo ten times better at ¹⁄₅^th the price of what you would spend somewhere else and still have no where near as good of a sound. They also know what they are doing with all things after market, and installation. Total integrity and total experts. Go there and tell them Scott sent you and also make sure you ask for Les, you will thank me and every body who has gotten a system there understands this! You will be blown away.

3.5 stars actually… Overall I’m pleased but not 100 percent satisfied. The staff is friendly and professional and started on time and finished my ceramic window tinting in what seemed to be record time for my appt. Waiting room was comfortable and had wifi.
As with all of these kind of jobs, it’s very difficult to get everything absolutely perfect so when I noticed what appeared to be very small nicks or chips in a few places, I took it back today, 3 days after my installation, to have someone look at it. An installer told me that he must have missed the «contamination» or trash on the back windshield and that removing tint from the back window now could affect the rear defroster… Ok. I understand and can live with it since it’s not that bad. (When I’ve had this done at a different place before, you can create another flaw when you try to correct the first one!)
But I also noticed a similar but unknown small item in one of the side windows (looks like a nick or small chip but actually may be something that got trapped between glass or tint?) and pointed it out… Installer wasn’t sure what it was. Ultimately, it’s not that bad either but the two of those together and a few other very, very minor similar flaws makes me wonder if it might be part of the film? Honestly I’m not sure but a bit disappointing when you spend that much money on high end film. The average person probably wouldn’t notice these except for the small piece on the back window, but I tend to scrutinize these kind of things when they are my car and you want it to be perfect.
So …unfortunately this isn’t totally perfect, and if I see a few other small items on the same side window, I may take it back and see if they can redo one window since there is a lifetime guarantee.
Don’t want to dissuade anyone from using Meggamaxx since these kinds of things can happen anywhere. My advice is to scrutinize the job immediately after and in the day or two after as well since it’s really hard for you and the installers to see everything at first inspection and it can look a bit different in different lighting from inside the car later.
Really want to give them higher marks since the car really looks nice overall and they seem to know their stuff… just not a perfect final product unfortunately in this case for my car.

Chris, the owner, is great and has excellent customer service skills. He assured that I was completely satisfied with my tint job and didn’t stop until everything was to my satisfaction and there was a smile on my face :)

BEWARE. These guys are amateurs. My Porsche Panamera had scratches on the tint after a week. Turns out they don’t know how to tint these cars.(suppose to take off doors and add felt to rollers). After I told them, they had no clue what I was talking about and told me I should do business somewhere else.

I went to Meggamaxx to have my subwoofer and amp installed. They were able to accomodate me for a walk in appointment and were very quick with the installation. Everything was installed well and installed so it was hidden and out of site. Great service for a good price.

I was referred by a friend to Mega Max to have my Blinder M47 laser jammer kit (
) installed on my bright red (read: cop magnet) Audi A4.
This entailed having 3 sensors mounted in the front grill and one over my license plate… along with a control unit under my dash. Having worked in a similar service based mechanic job for several years myself… I assumed that it would take no more than a couple of hours to do with little to no modifications to the car.
I’d do it myself but, I getting lazy in my old age besides the fact that the manufacturer of the laser jammer requires that you have it installed by qualified and certified technicians in order for it’s warranty/​guarantee to be valid.
So, after arriving at Mega Max… I was hit with the kind of cooler-​than-​thou attitude you’d expect from a bunch of West Coast Customs wanna-be’s. Upon speaking with their head tech… I was told it would just take a couple of hours and that it would be $ 400 to complete the work.
Cringe.
Four hundred bucks is a bit steep for 2 – 3 hours worth of work in my eyes… especially since it’s just mounting a few sensors and running a few wires. But, again… I had to do it in order for the manufacturers warranty/​guarantee. So, reluctantly I accepted and went off to lunch with a friend.
After poking around for a couple of hours, I returned to Mega Max… having not received a phone call… to find out that my car had been done for some time. The head tech… possibly feeling guilty and trying to substantiate the exorbitant charge… walked me through the system and how it works.
The wires were cleanly hidden and the front sensors looked solidly mounted. My only gripe was that the rear sensor looked like a high school shop project gone awry. They used some cheesy plastic bracket to cobble the sensor together with my license plate screws. (As ugly as it is… it’s still holding months later)
So, I leave. A few hundo lighter and invisible to cops.
It was within a week of enjoying my new-​found powers of stealth in my lil’ car that I realized that the techs at Mega Max just installed the hardware of the Blinder kit and didn’t even bother to finish the installation by configuring the set up.
WTF?!
I was cruising around with a false sense of confidence the whole time. When you have a water heater installed in your home do they just set it in the closet and leave all the hoses and pipes unattached? I think not. I had to configure everything myself after the fact.
Again, these guys have been watching too much West Coast Customs and PImp My Ride on television. I would’ve been better off taking my car to the blue clowns of Best Buy.
Mega Max… MAX attitude… MAX money… MAX let down.

Chris was incredibly helpful. When I called and told there was a spot to install my new head unit, I went on over. They took it in, checking to see what the install would be and letting me know an exact cost if there would be extra things, since I’ve got a MINI Cooper S with the factory Harmon Kardon stereo. After about 15 minutes, they came in and gave me the run down, and told me of the part I’d need to do the install that I didn’t have. They then put the stuff back together, wired my radio so I could temporarily still use it, and that was that.
Now, here’s where this was awesome. They could have charged me for their time, all they did to check it out, and to install the temporary fix so I could at least listen to the radio. But, no, they didn’t. And although I don’t have to go back to them in the future to install it once I do get the part, I absolutely will. Chris was very professional, friendly and helpful, and this is just the kind of people I want working on my car. Very good.
