Top company to deal with

Very knowledgable and professional. The installation of my rear view camera, front and rear lights to my T6 was first class you wouldn’t have known that they had been in my van. There attention to details was first class. I will be back again shortly to have further work carried out.

Superb service.

I bought a VW Up and I wanted rear reversing sensors. VW would fit them but only with an audible tone. I’d searched on the internet and found the video from Advanced In-Car Technologies which showed them fitted to my car with the visual display on the radio screen. “Can’t be done” said my VW Garage.
A simple call to Advanced In-Car Technologies was all it took to be assured that it could, that all the parts were VW, and were covered by their guarantee. They sent me a fully costed quotation. We booked a date and in just one afternoon I collected my car with fully operational, body-colour matched, visual and audio rear sensors. Their personal service was excellent. The technician came out to greet me, talked me through the whole process, telephoned me when the car was ready, and sat with me whilst I tested out the system. What more could you ask for?
I am delighted with the service I received from Advanced In-Car Technologies and give them the highest recommendation.

Outstanding service

Visited Advanced in car technologies to day to have optical parking system installed to my daughters 2019 Vw Polo beats.Front and rear sensors installed linked directly to the factory head unit so as well as an audible signal a picture of the car comes up on the head unit as if it were installed direct from factory.From the original enquiry with Tim right through to the installation that Rich performed today the service was absolutely fantastic.Tim absolutely looked after me throughout the order process, dealing with all my queries and making the booking really simple and when I arrived today I was made incredibly welcome by James and Rich.Rich who was the engineer that completed the work greeted me when I arrived ,explained what he was going to do and got on with the job.Once finished he showed me how everything worked and I was off on the road.From start to finish the whole process was faultless and I do have to say the installation looks absolutely fantastic..........incredibly pleased so a big shout out to the guys at Advanced in car technologies........perfect service

Best wishes

Lights, Camera, Action!

We rarely do reviews, however Advanced in-Car have been exceptional, so we’re more than happy to give an account of our experience to date.

Having decided to upgrade our VW T6 California we set about finding an experienced and reliable company to do the work. After several months of extensive research, we were thrilled to discover Advanced In-Car, who are based in Poole.

Despite being quite a distance away, we nonetheless decided to pay them a visit, and meet their enthusiastic team. As we weren’t in any particular rush for the work to be done, this also gave us a chance to run through everything with them, and explore the options.

We were very impressed by their professional approach and knowledge, and their ‘can-do’ attitude. They also quickly tuned in to what we were looking to achieve, and readily offered up suggestions that not only made perfect sense of things, but also improved our spec!

So, a few weeks on, with the fine tuning complete, we popped back to have the following work done: new projector head-lamps with LED Daylight Running Lights and sequential indicators, new multifunction steering wheel, front and rear Thinkware U1000 dash cam, motorised door mirrors, and a few other tasteful finishing touches!

We had also initially planned to upgrade the VW speakers to those by Alpine, as we understood this would increase the performance of our Alpine head unit. However, Advanced in-Car mentioned that they would soon be adding Audison audio systems to their portfolio, and as we’d shown a keen interest in several of their products James kindly arranged for his Audison contact (Ed) to pop by (all the way from Cambridge!) with his VW T6 demo vehicle ... talk about going the extra mile!

This of course meant that we not only had the privilege of experiencing (in close quarters) the Audison set up, but we could also run through our spec with Ed, and he was keen to offer up some suggestions ... adding that little bit extra! Terrific stuff!

So, we’re now planning to go ahead with the Audison installation, which will include extensive sound deadening treatment … and maybe one or two other little ‘essentials’! Lol

Overall, we have been extremely impressed with Advanced in-Car’s knowledge and expertise, and their involvement throughout the whole process has been spot on.

Altogether a 5* plus plus plus experience ... great value for money ... and the icing on the cake is we got to enjoy a few special days at the Sandbanks hotel.

Our grateful thanks to James, Tim, Richard and Lisa at Advanced in-Car, and also Ed.

Reversing camera for a 2017 Smart ForTwo Prime.

I had seen Advanced's film online about their fitting of a reversing camera on a Smart ForTwo. I live in Woking and it is nearly a 2 hour drive to Poole so I contacted my local Smart garage about fitting a reversing camera. After about 2 weeks of toing and froing they said it couldn't be done. I contacted Advanced, they asked me for serial numbers etc for the car and confirmed, very quickly, that they could do it. We agreed a date/time and I travelled to Poole. They had a dedicated room, with Wi-Fi and coffee machine, in which I could comfortably wait whilst they did the work. It was done, the data card was updated and the reversing camera works a treat. Everyone was most welcoming and I had a good result. Highly recommended.

Excellent customer service

From the initial discussions to the actual installation and commissioning of my cameras everything went smoothly. Tim & James were excellent and did what they said they would do. Great customer service and the aftercare has been awesome. My local Audi dealer knocked out my reversing camera, they stepped up to the plate and organised their area service team to resolve the issue. They came to my work place and fixed the problem. Fantastic service and I would recommend them to anyone thinking of upgrading the cameras ect in their car. Thanks Frankg

Quality driven, experienced and friendly. OE front & rear parking sensors, Sat Nav, dash cam and reversing camera.

From start to finish, they treated my car as if it was their own. They took time to fully explain the works, the equipment they are using and its operation. I felt that they have my best interests at heart, from the initial advice from Tim via email and over the phone and the in-depth demonstration from James. The quality of the works was perfect and the equipment worked exactly as described. I travelled over 600 miles to visit them and I would recommend Advanced In-Car Technologies to anyone wanting to upgrade there car! I have done it once and would gladly go back with my next car, the one after that, the one after that...... :)

Product was just as advertised.

Product was just as advertised. The installer in York was very efficient and helpful. Installation working as per the manual. Cost was a bit higher than other systems on the market but feel that a quality product is offered.

Parking Sensors for Skoda Octavia.

Took my Octavia in to Advanced-In Car to have front sensors added to the factory-fitted rear sensors. I'm delighted with the results - the new sensors are fully integrated into the Park Pilot display exactly as they would have been if factory-fitted. The job was very neatly done and in exactly the time predicted. They are a very friendly team and I'd thoroughly recommend them to the owner of any VAG car looking for a good quality retrofit.
