WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

HERTZ AUTHORIZED FOR HARLEY AUDIO

One of the few SC shops authorized as a Hertz dealer — OEM-grade fairing, saddlebag, and tour-pak tiers with factory integration.

CUSTOM BUILDS, NOT OFF-THE-SHELF

From subwoofer enclosures to factory-radio retrofits, every project is designed for your specific vehicle — not pulled from a kit.

ONE TEAM, EVERY VEHICLE TYPE

Cross-trained on cars, boats, Harleys, RVs, and powersports — marine-system precision on your daily driver.

OWNER ON THE FLOOR

Jesse Sturgess is on-site for consultations and quality checks — the same person designing your system signs off before you drive away.

[ COMMON QUESTIONS, CLEAR ANSWERS ]

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT DOES AN INSTALL COST?

Pricing depends on your vehicle, the components, and the complexity of the build — we’ll provide a firm quote after a free consultation.

HOW LONG DOES AN INSTALL TAKE?

Most installs are completed in a single day. Larger custom builds (full marine systems, ground-up audio) take longer — we’ll set timeline expectations during your consultation.

CAN YOU UPGRADE MY EXISTING SYSTEM, OR DO I NEED TO START OVER?

Yes — we can upgrade most existing systems. We’ll evaluate what you already have and recommend improvements without replacing anything unnecessarily.

DO YOU OFFER FREE CONSULTATIONS OR QUOTES?

Yes — quotes are free. Call us at 803-705-0341, request a quote online, or stop by the shop during business hours.

DO YOU OFFER WARRANTY OR FOLLOW-UP SUPPORT ON INSTALLATIONS?

Yes — every install includes follow-up support. Warranty specifics vary by component and install type, so we cover them during your consultation.
