Install from the Holiday location

2009-10-27T12:29:00.001-07:00

I've gotten a few questions regarding how we will be doing the installation of certain items at our Holiday 2009 store. Well we unfortunately we cannot install there. We don't have a bay and it isn't allowed. But we have come up with a solution that will take care of that! If you purchase a headunit, or any other item that can use a professional installation (remember, most items we sell get a FREE extended warranty when installed by us) we will pay for your gas to go to our main location!

With pre-payment of your installation, we will hand you a $10 gas card! If you have any other questions give us a call or email us! We hope to see you in Clackamas Town Center starting November 1st!
