All of our car stereos come with a fully fitted option, so when you buy your stereo you've got the option to get everything fully fitted as part of the total price. This will vary depending on the purchase price of the stereo itself. Along with the fitting, we'll also give you a full demonstration, so you know exactly how to use your new stereo system.

We guarantee a secure and reliable fit for 12 months after we've installed your new audio system, so if anything does goes wrong, we'll happily fix it for you.

How Do I Get My Car Stereo Fitted?

If you’ve already purchased your stereo at Halfords and would now like it fitted, please contact your local store to arrange a fitting appointment at a time convenient to you.

If you're buying your stereo in-store, speak to one of our car audio experts who'll be more than willing to help you out!

If you're buying your stereo online, you can also choose to have it fitted by following this process:

  1. Choose a stereo and click on its product page.
  2. Under ‘Step 1: Add Fitting Assessment’, choose the ‘Fitting Assessment’ option.
  3. Under ‘Step 2: Check Availability’, choose a date, time and location that suits you for your fitting assessment. Then click ‘book selected slot’ to add the stereo and fitting to your basket.
  4. Complete the checkout process.

Your fitting assessment will last about 30 minutes. During this time, one of our experienced technicians will double-check that the stereo you’ve chosen is suitable for your car, that it can be installed seamlessly, that it will work with your existing controls and that we have the correct parts to complete a high-quality installation.

Once the assessment is complete, the technician will be able to advise you on next steps and book you in for a full fitting appointment on a day and at a time that suits you. The full fitting should take about an hour or so and then you’ll be on your way with a brand-new stereo to enjoy!
