    Hi...

    I'm planning on putting BT plates on my car but don't know any shop that would do the install here in SoCal.... (I don't have a garage - just renting on an apartment)

    Are there any shops in Socal (San Bernardino County or Orange County will do) that you could recommend to install BT Plates... or could I just go to Pepboys to do it?

    Thanks.....

    You probably don't need a garage. I haven't done the install myself, but can't you get under there with just a pair of jackstands?

    I don't think you even need jackstands. Just get on your back and reach through. There's plenty of room to do the job without lifting the car.
