Their products were great, but recently when I was looking into adding a system to my current vehicle I discovered they stopped letting End Users(aka, us customers who aren't "authorized dealers") have access to install manuals and firmware revisions for their devices. Frankly, I find it insulting that this company considers its customers so intellectually inferior that we can't install something ourselves. Well it certainly doesn't help you locked away the information that would have helped with that instead of forcing us t... read more

They sell auto accessories for your car. They hide under the DEI name which is why I am the first to review them as they don't want you to be able to contact them. They want you to go to a dealer so they have a buffer like most slimy company's do. This way the dealer has to face the unhappy customers instead of them. Lifetime warranty on some products.
