Upgrade your daily drive with a professional Apple CarPlay installation from Ride Sounds. Get modern navigation, music, calls, and messaging on a clean, responsive touchscreen—installed the right way with proper integration, safe wiring, and an OEM-quality finish.
We focus on what matters: reliable CarPlay performance, retained factory features (when possible), clean audio signal, and a layout that looks like it belongs in your dash. Whether you want a simple CarPlay upgrade or a full sound system to match it, we’ve got you.
What We Fix (and Upgrade) With CarPlay Installs
Factory radios can feel outdated fast—slow Bluetooth, no modern apps, weak sound, and limited features. We upgrade your system while keeping it clean, safe, and functional.
1. OEM Integration Done Right
- Retain steering wheel controls, factory chimes, and OEM features when supported.
- Integrate factory backup camera (or install a new HD camera).
- Keep the install clean: correct harnessing, proper fusing, no hack wiring.
Factory-Like Finish
We aim for an install that looks and functions like it came that way—tight fitment, no rattles, no loose trim.
2. Modern Features & Better Sound
- Wireless or wired CarPlay options based on your vehicle and goals.
- Hands-free calling that actually sounds clear (mic placement matters).
- Optional upgrades: speakers, amp, subwoofer, DSP tuning, sound deadening.
Clean Signal, Clean Install
We set gains and integration correctly so your system stays loud, clean, and reliable.
