If your around Rayco you should also checkout SpeedWorld, its a few blocks away.

I hear they (speedworld) do great work but they are a bit pricey.

Thumbs up

I'm familiar with Corona, Queens, NY. I go up to get a sandwich from Leo's Latticini on Thurs once or twice a year.

I just got my TL-S back after having a Clifford installed with Anticarjacking features and Remote Start. Clifford is the best out there, and isnt cheap. I paid $860 installed with tax.

Stay away from Rayco and Speedworld. Id never go to them to have quality work done. Remember an Alarm is only as good as its install. I guarantee places like Rayco prob just shove the Brain right up into the dash where its prob not hard to get at. If you are going to get a great alarm, for your great car, dont cut corners on the install.

I went to a place called Doren Car Audio located at 214th street on Jamaica Ave. The place is booked for days at times for installs, but thats because they only have guys who do quality work. Hiring more guys who may cut corners etc will get the job done faster, but they dont sacrfice quality and they work on some pretty nice cars.

any body shop reco's in Queens? I live in Flushing now and grew up here, but have never had occasion to have body work done to my car while living here, luckily.

My Integra has lots of scratches and dings and an impacted rear fender. I took it to Federal Auto Body on Northern Blvd. and got an estimate of about $2500! That's on a 94 Integra LS, whose book value is around 8k or so.

Maaco is out -- too many horror stories about their "paint jobs". But anybody who knows of a good shop who does good work at reasonable prices (I don't need it to look like new necessarily, just not like crap) would be appreciated

You have a 1st Gen, right? Our car has keyless entry. If your missing the remote just go to the dealer, it like $60 or something. I was gonna buy a new one when I lost mine but I found it.

Oh. Sorry. Then you'll have to get another alarm.
