Backup Camera Install in Houston Texas? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

NIN69 · 05-25-2014, 02:33 PM

Can anyone recommend a reputable shop to install an FRS backup camera in Houston TX? Positive reputation more important than cost. Hear too many customer stories of bad installs. Thanks!

What camera do you have? I've installed one myself.

Beat-Sonic. I have the instructions and the DIY guides from FT86. Never opened dash panels and ran wire before. Is it easy for a newbie?

It's really not that bad. Check out some of the guides on the forums. If you're still stumped we can work something out.

Thanks for the assist! I'll PM if I have any questions.

Thanks. Good to know I have help if the install instructions are not clear!

Best Buy installed mine. I believe it was $85 and it took about two hours. They did a great job and even gave me a warranty for their work.

Hear good and bad about Best Buy installers depending on the location.

Phastek Performance may do the install, they are a vendor here and located in the Houston area as well.

NIN69 · 05-26-2014, 10:35 AM

Phastek is a great place. Bought some accessories from them but they don't do installations anymore. At least that is what they told me when I asked.

RojerLockless · 05-31-2014, 12:06 AM

Do they install? I'm looking to get the backup camera ASAP.

Wiring is very straight forward, challenge your self and try to DIY! You'll save lots

Phastek doesn't do installs any more. They referred me to a performance shop called Fast Automotive on Barker Cypress.
