Had a new head unit installed by these guys and they were very professional! The installation was no hassle at all and the job was done on the same day (make sure you give them a call before you go). Now my car has a new head unit which is much better than the OEM one. All the staff are kind, professional and knowledgeable. If you have any concerns, check their ytb channel, I was attracted by their amazing demos before I decided to go.

I was having difficulty entering the radio code following replacement of the battery. Not only was this carried out without hesitation in a most pleasant and agreeable manner, but they refused to accept payment. Service like this is rare. I will have no heditation in using them on another occasion.

They were professional and very well on time. They retune my speakers as it was let down by the previous different companies. Steve, one of the worker that did my tuning. He was very passionate about it and spent time with me to talked through how the whole set up work and gave me advice for future reference. Now my brother will be getting his done too. Highly recommend

I had a drain on my battery and despite several attempts my usual garage couldn’t find the cause. It became a real problem until a friend recommended CBS. They were amazing. They were able to identify the cause of the battery drain and only charged me for one hours labour.

Had front and rear dash cams installed and once again another great install and customer service from them. Courtesy car was provided straight away with no hassle. Dropped my keys off and that was me done.Great after service taking time to show me how the dash cams work and what i would need to change around depending on preference and how easy it was to operate. Dash cams were out of view and not obstructing view.Another great install.Thankyou

Cambridge Battery Service (CBS) has always had a good reputation for fitting high-end ICE and other components to equally high-end vehicles, but they recently sorted out a long-standing electrical issue on my somewhat more mundane car too.Their friendliness and approachability as well as their obvious skills and experience is very confidence-inspiring so, although I appreciate people will travel a long way to use them, I'm glad they're fairly local to me as I've no hesitation in being a returning client.

Absolutely wonderful service. Brilliant team. Dash cam fitted - couldn’t have asked for any greater attention to detail. James - excellent installation; Josh - a very detailed and thorough talk through of all the intricacies of the dash cam. Anyone thinking of dash cam installation would be well advised to give them a visit.

I recently had a Kenwood head unit fitted in an American truck. Not only were the Guys at CBS knowledgeable they were completely professional at keeping me up to date with the job and everything was as I was told it would be even though the job wasn't as straightforward as planned. I'd thoroughly recommend them.

I made an appointment to have a tow bar fitted to my Audi.The only very minor problem I had was finding the premises as the postcode gave me a point a little to the south. This was quickly resolved by a telephone call and CBS is easy to find if you keep going north of Horningsea. I only mention that since everything else went so well. The place was spotless not really what you expect for tow bar fitting. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. My four and six year old grandchildren entertained and made welcome. The operation of the bar was explained in detail. Finally the car was smart and shiny. I left feeling very happy and my thanks go to all staff including names I remember Adil, Steve and Chrissie.

Great job fitting reversing sensors for my wife's Nissan Juke. I only wish I'd had it done earlier. The sensors perfectly match the bumper colour and look as clean as any factory installed sensors. Clean sophisticated showroom and work area. Good communication and overall customer care.

I had some heated front seats fitted at CBS, right from the start I was impressed with the professional set up not just of the layout and building but the staff too, I was given a courtesy car and well looked after, on my return they had done a remarkable job, neat, clean and above all professional, they also cleaned my car out too, going to book my works van in next for reverse sensors, quality work CBS, I'll be back.

Great service by the guys there. Josh (I think that was his name) was very professional and gave me great advice. Wasn’t pushy and trying to up sell me things I didn’t need. I had a subwoofer fitted and Tim the fitter did an amazing job and even went above and beyond to make sure it was a top quality job. Would highly recommend these guys 👍

These guys are a professional and highly competent outfit. What's more, they can do the jobs that the others can't manage. I needed a sympathetic update/ upgrade to my old Alfa Romeo. Great customer service and I was able to carry out my own work in the comfortable reception area, while they worked on my car. Top marks!

CBS fitted my parrot about 18 months ago and did a brilliant job. However recently the software on it started misbehaving so I took it back to them. They were able to fix it on the spot and couldn't have been more helpful. Excellent job and faultless customer service. I wouldn't go to anyone else.

CBS is a serious outfit worth travelling for, I had security upgrades installed on my car by them, all carried out at their impressive new facility away from the hustle and bustle of Cambridge city centre. Coffee and chat with Adil while the work was carried out, in the comfort of the modern and large waiting area. I’ve had bad experiences with mobile auto electricians before so wanted somewhere a bit more professional, CBS didn’t disappoint. I Wouldn’t hesitate to have any other work carried out there.

These guys really increased my quality of life, by getting my 2 15’s and radio back operational! I was questioning going to a shop to fix my car audio bc I enjoy the satisfaction of figuring it out on my own. I’ll be recommending CBS to my car audio friends and will definitely be going to them in the future while I’m in the U.K. for any other assistance or upgrades I’ll be needing for my car.

Professional and friendly from start to finish. The team went above and beyond to ensure that everything ran smoothly. Few teething problems, as there is with any complex installation, but the guys sorted on the same day, even when I dropped in unannounced! Special mention goes to Jim for his expert craftsmanship, and effort. The care and attention to detail is fantastic, not to mention the quality of the products themselves.Only good things to say about the whole process. (The free coffee is great too!) Thanks again guys.

I rang for a quote to fit rear parking sensors and the very helpful gentleman gave me an exact figure to complete the job and approximate installation time. I thought the quote was very reasonable and promptly booked my car in for the work to be carried out. Everything went like clockwork. I left my car at the workshop at 8.30am, took my dog for a wonderful walk to Lode and back and by 11.30am my car was ready to drive away. This company is as professional as they come and I would recommend them to anyone.

CBS Automotive upgraded the stereo in my BMW Z4 E89 and did an excellent job. It turned out there was a problem where the "permanent" power feed cut out after some time when the ignition was off, and so the stereo kept resetting, CBS Automotive got my car back in again very quickly, diagnosed and solved the issue. Each time they were able to supply me with a courtesy car, so I was able to go to work with minimal disruption.Thank you for a truly first class service!
Nick Holt

Adil and his team replaced original 25 year old, blown and rotting OEM speakers, and rewired and sorted out the stereo head unit in my Honda Del Sol towards the end of summer. Paid a bit more than I expected but quality service costs money! ...and these guys did a good job in good time. Would Recommend.
