All 38 shops listed in Illinois install car stereos or CarPlay, with the most in Chicago, Alsip and Aurora. Each listing shows its hours, Google reviews and a call button.

Prices depend on your car, the parts and the shop, and we don’t list prices. To get a fair price, ask 2 or 3 shops for a written quote that splits parts from labor. Give them your car’s year, make, model and trim, and ask whether the quote includes the dash kit, the wiring harness and any adapter for steering wheel controls or a factory camera.

Yes. 14 shops in Illinois list car audio repair. Call first and describe the fault, such as no sound, no power or a dead screen, so the shop can tell you whether it fixes that unit or would replace it.

Many shops do, but not all, and our listings don’t show each shop’s policy. When you call, ask whether they install parts you bring, what the labor costs for your car, and whether that labor is covered if the part fails.
