Mobile Toys

All I gotta say is, «I’ll be back.» Not trying to be Arnold at all but the service, the pricing, the friendliness of Chris and his staff — all wonderful! Great businessmen, easy to work with and superb and neat (tidy) work. Keep it up guys! I will drive the distance again for this great work AND customer service.

These guys are awesome! I went to pretty much every car audio installation place around College Station to try to see how much it would cost to buy an installation wiring kit and get a Polk Audio amp and sub installed in my car, and these guys were the cheapest by close to $ 100. Not only were they the cheapest in town, they also gave me a much nicer wire installation kit than the other places were offering me. And to top it off, every other place wasn’t going to be able to install my stuff for a few days, but when i walked into Mobile Toys they just asked me a few simple questions, gave me a quote that was a crap load cheaper than anywhere else so I agreed to it and my car was done less than 3 hours later. They did a fantastic job too cause my car is thumping! I really cant recommend this place enough, if you need any audio work done on your car around the BCS area save yourself some time and money and come to this place first.

Great People, I had a custom stereo put in my 2013 Road King motorcycle, I wasn’t just what i wanted in the beginning, but with a few tweeks we have got it just right!!!

I had Mobile Toys install an AppRadio 2 into my 370Z and build me a custom dock for my iPhone back in 2012. That install went pretty smoothly and I was very pleased. I switched to a Prius C and had them install an AppRadio 3. There were some issues getting my iPhone to work with the AppRadio 3 (for which I blame Pioneer). After not being able to figure it out and causing stress for myself and probably taking up way too much of these guys’ time, Chris agreed to take back the AppRadio 3 (and related parts) after three months and did a custom install of a Nexus 7 in the dash. It attaches by magnets, charges wirelessly and uses Bluetooth. Very sweet. I was impressed by their customer service.

Mobile Toys exceeded my expectations! I called for appt late Friday and they made time to install receivers and speakers in 2 of my vehicles the next day. The staff was friendly, professional, and willing to answer all of my questions. The final bill was less than the original quoted price, which shows honesty and integrity.
As a side note– the other stereo shop on the same road SUCKS! I had to have everything they did replaced or reworked, not to mention the creep factor.

After reading some of these reviews on here, I felt compelled to post my experience with Mobile Toys. I’ve been to MT several times over the course of the past 3 years for one reason: they know what they are doing. Having been to hundreds of different car audio shops over the course of about 6 years, I can say that Mobile Toys is one of the most professional, courteous, high quality shops in the state of Texas. There is no place in college station that even comes close to what these guys can do.
Keep in mind: this is not some fly-​by-​night car stereo shop for people wanting to throw a bunch of nonsense audio equipment in their car, these guys are PROFESSIONAL audio installers. They go to competitions, are active on several renowned car audio internet sites, have real talent and skills, and strive to go the extra mile for their customers. In an industry that’s been overrun with amateur dealers/​installers and uninformed customers, these guys are patient, reasonable, understanding, and helpful above all else.
Doubt their professionalism? From the minute you walk in, I encourage you to take 30 minutes to go over the finite details of one of the most intricate and impressive cars I’ve ever seen sitting right in their lobby. That car is a testament to the level of work these guys perform. Their work is nothing short of top-​notch. Expensive? Yes. But when paying for custom install work, you get what you pay for.
Enough babbling, onto my most recent experience:
I was getting some custom A-​pillar mounts built for my car. Having never fiber-​glassed myself, I wanted to spend the money on a professional job that could be done in a reasonable amount of time. We set an appointment, I walked in and dropped off my car, and they were done within 6 hours. Their level of quality would have taken me weeks, maybe months to perfect the install. They were able to save me time, money, and headache. The job was worth every penny. When I saw the car, I was thrilled. My expectations were not just met, but far exceeded.
Too late to make a long story short, but if you are serious about your car’s audio system, these guys would love to help share their knowledge. Give them a chance, you won’t regret it.

The quality and speed were excellent. I was really disappointed in the price though. I was told 250 on the phone but when I got the bill it was over 450. When we called the next day about the big difference, it was because I wasn’t clear about what I wanted, even though I was VERY clear on the phone when the job was quoted. The radio does work great though.

Too be honest, if it were possible I would give them NO STARS at all.
— The Owner is extremely rude and unprofessional
Over xmas break, my truck was broken into and the theives stole my receiver, sub and amp. Thankfully my insurance company covers that. I had to go through there select service clients, Mobile Toys being the only one here.
The first go around, all they had to do was an estimate on the damage and items that were taken. A man named Chris was the one who «greeted» me and immediately began acting like I was wasting his time. It was as if he didn’t want my business at all. That or he has no clue what business ethics and common courtesy is. I just thought, maybe he was having a bad day. No big deal. I had an appointment set up, but they denied it and said my insurance company never did even though I had email conformation from both parties. I had to wait an hour for something that takes 10 minutes to do.
The second go around… Check this out… I didn’t get any of my stereo equipment in that was ordered from my insurance company until Feb 7 (thursday). I called reminding them who I was and told them my Insurance company has already given yall the payment info all I needed to do was set up an appointment. He said ” Im sorry we are swamped until next week”. So we set an appointment for Feburary 13 (wednesday). I dont really understand what could be so hard and take so long about reconnecting the wires because everything was already there, and I had identical equipment to replace it.
I showed up on Wednesday, Feb 13 to have my stereo installed. Not only was he super rude when he greeted me, yet again, he said I was wrong, that we had an appointment for the previous wednesday at 2pm. I said thats impossible I didnt have my stereo stuff in until that thursday and even showed him my call record on my phone when it was made. His response was, Youre wrong, I remember exactly what happened and it was set for last week. I asked him, so even if it wasset for last week, why wouldn’t yall call and ask why i didn’t show up or remind me about my appt? He said normally its the other way around. Then walked away. He didn’t even ask to set another appointment!!!
STAY AWAY from this place. It sucks and the owner is a irresponsible, unethical jerk.

We walked into Mobile Toys last week after being in the Audio Video store in the same building, and were blown away by the show car on display inside. It’s like a space ship with a single center seat, center steering wheel, insane stereo system, paint job. From what it looks like this store specializes in car stereo. Be sure to stop in and check out the car, it should blow your mind. Even while I had a camera in my pocket I was so shocked by the car that I forgot to take any pictures of it. Will have to stop by again and do that.
