Default S&M Electro-Tech aka Turnswitch is Beyond Awesome

Best experience I have had shopping for Pontiac parts, hands down.

turnswitch.com

I needed advice on replacing speakers, called, and talked to Greg. He spent at least 10 minutes listening, exchanging ideas, spelling out options, and finally made a recommendation. He then told me the parts I needed were back-ordered, explained why, and told me when he'd have them. It felt good to be treated like a human being and I was confident my speakers would arrive in a few weeks.

Couple weeks later, Greg actually calls me, tells me the speakers are in, verifies the parts I need, and asks me if it's OK to run my credit card. Wow, I thought.... what a great experience! This level of consideration and care never happens and I liked it!

During this call, I mentioned I was having trouble repairing my radio, and suspected it was a part that isn't available any more. He said, yes, those have been known to fail and cause my symptoms, and he could supply a used one if I needed it. I told him thanks, I'd let him know on the used part.

Later that day, I thought I'd be better off just getting the part, so I called Greg back, told him I wanted one.

His response floored me: "I already put one in with your speakers and shipped them."

Can't top that for customer service. Makes me want to buy stuff from them I don't even need!

I Concur. I bought the dual speaker in the stock bracket setup for my 75 Formula from them last year. Super helpful and nice even sent me instructions on how to add a rear speaker properly retaining the proper phasing.

Thanks vidguy

I bought a couple more used radio parts from them and, honestly, have never been treated so well.

Have to add also, Greg is great to deal with! He converted my 67 GTO AM radio to AM/FM stereo and added an aux in jack. Looks completely original and plays great!

Now I'm a repeat offender. I just had Greg do the same thing for me.. Super helpful.

Just got a new speaker from S&M for my '57. It will be about 6 months before it goes in but it should sound great! Funny, it has a rather diminutive Rare Earth magnet that GM developed in the 80's.
