2 Watt Auto Sound and Security

Called Gary same day I wanted my stereo installed, about 10:30am, he said that was no problem he’d be around at about 2pm. Called me back cause he finished early, so he came at 11:30am. I had a blown fuse that he didn’t upcharge anything for, other places charging upwards of $ 150 for an install, he quoted me at $ 70 and kept to it. He was super professional and nice, out of there in 45 minutes and my new unit works like a charm

See review of Top Notch– Met with Gary, owner, who came initially and was going to do original work. He looked over the work and said he couldn’t do it. Even after I explained the effort and work required.
Gotta give him credit as he said it was too much for him so I am okay with. What I was surprised was that he came by when Top Notch installer was checking on my vehicle. Not sure what they talked about but they both walked out of my job as they wanted $ 200 more.

Gary was running a little late, but he was very friendly and did a great job installing a remote start on my older car. You also can’t beat the price; other companies in the area quoted me over $ 400 for a job he did at less than half. Additionally, he came to my house and did the installation, so I did not have to drive anywhere. I would definitely recommend 2 Watt to anyone in the DC area.

My alarm stopped affecting the the door locks recently, including that the remote control no longer affects the locks. Given that (a) I’ve lost my driver-​side door handle, with one little tab still allowing me to open the door, but who knows if it might break off soon?, and (b) someone recently tried breaking into my car through the passenger side so that the key will not go in any longer, I reeeeally could not go much longer before fixing my ability to open the locks by remote! (If that one tab breaks off on the driver side, I would literally have absolutely no way to get into my car with the doors locked, short of breaking a window!)
One local shop that I’ve gone to for other things says that they don’t do alarms. Another said that they sometimes do but didn’t want to take this one on. Another place, farther away in lower Alexandria, that I’ve gone to in the past, is now closed.
I came to Unilocal and saw Gary’s info. I gave him a call this morning and he said he’d be here in less than an hour.
Gary’s a great guy. Very friendly, chatty, interesting to talk with as he works, and – most importantly – he figured out the problem and fixed it! (He also said he’d try to find a new door handle and passenger-​side lock.) I definitely recommend his work.
