AUBURN HILLS, MI (03.15.22) – Alpine Electronics of America, Inc. will offer three, 1-hour online training webinars for their Authorized U.S. Dealers. These webinars will focus on newly released and upcoming 2022 Alpine products.
This is the first series of webinars that Alpine will host in 2022. Over the past two years, Alpine has found new opportunities to connect with dealers by offering online courses that ranged from new product introductions, marketing promotions, and detailed product training.
“Even though the concept of these webinars was born out of necessity during the “stay-at-home” environment we’ve experienced these past two years, we continue to find value in offering online education and support to our dealers,” said Ed Moriarty, Assistant Vice President of Sales and Technology, Brand Business Unit, Alpine Electronics of America, Inc. “Not only are these trainings valuable for staying connected with our dealers; they also give our dealers the opportunity to receive important brand information and support straight from the source – you don’t see that with many companies.”
Led by Alpine National Trainer, Eric Brooks, the theme for the webinar training is “Precise. Dynamic. Live.” with training on the 2022 Alpine Product Line. The training will be fully accessible online with time for questions at the end.
Registrants can choose from the following days to attend:
Monday, April 4, noon EST
Tuesday, April 5, 3 p.m. EST
Wednesday, April 6, 6 p.m. EST
All Alpine Authorized Dealers are encouraged to register for this free webinar by contacting their Alpine Rep.

Marking its 18th event, The End Result Show will take place on Friday, March 18 at the Bridgewater Conference Center, 10561 Sawmill Parkway, Powell, OH—a location that is easily accessible for dealers located in Ohio, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania.
The one-day event, designed to motivate and educate retail sales teams is entitled, A Time for Transformation to Revive, Survive, and Thrive which is “absolutely needed to successfully move forward in 2022,” stated Ed Dalesandro, Principal of End Result and organizer of the show.
Continuing Dalesandro stated “As of this past Friday there were 156 area retailers registered and over 30 registered for every class which was nearing capacity.

Dr Viggoano is a Professor Emeritus, CES Innovations Judge plus radio and TV reporter in Pittsburgh.

Home audio, video, and aftermarket automotive retailers are encouraged to attend to see and hear new products from exhibiting manufacturers, attend educational seminars that cover all the bases from technical sessions to advice on how to create attention-grabbing in-store displays, to effectively using social media to their advantage. After a full day of activities, all are invited to a special networking social event.
Dalesandro concluded, “These are crucial times for brick and mortar independent dealers that are trying to adapt to survive and thrive again. As a rep in the consumer electronics industry, I feel it’s my job to provide dealers with the tools they need to be successful and compete in this moving target of a world. It will take ‘out of the box’ thinking to maintain customer flow and this could be a boom for all of us but it must be carefully orchestrated and well-thought-out.”
The Saturday Mobile Hot Rod Installation Class will include tuning and integration techniques. A deep dive from Ken Ward will be featured. There is a $50. per installer fee to be paid at the class.
HOLLY HILL, FL (03.14.22) – Saddle Tramp by Metra Electronics has added new products to their inventory designed to upgrade 1998-2013 Harley-Davidson Road Glide models. This new line of products features a replacement inner fairing for riders who want to upgrade the sound system and install a modern aftermarket Double-DIN radio, as well as accompanying products that complement the fairing. Saddle Tramp has also introduced a new amp bracket kit to fit 2014-up Harley-Davidson Street Glide models. These new products are available now for shipping and are designed to help installers deliver upgraded, fully customizable sound systems with less time and labor spent in the install bay.
The 95-HDIF2 Harley-Davidson Road Glide FLT/Sharknose fairing is a replacement inner fairing designed to fit almost any 4-inch tall Double-DIN radio into 1998-2013 Harley-Davidson Road Glide FLT models. This product allows for the upgrading of the stock radio to a model with a display screen for modern radio technology like Apple CarPlay and Android audio. These motorcycles come from the factory able to accommodate only a smaller 2-inch tall Single-DIN radio. This customization kit comes with the radio mounting hardware and speaker plates in three different sizes; 6.5-inch, 6×9-inch, and a blank plate so that you can add the speaker size of your choice. The fairing is painted high-gloss black but can be custom painted if desired, and it retains all of the original gauges on the motorcycle. Like all of Metra’s radio installation kits, it is constructed with durable ABS plastic and designed to match the factory look and feel for a sleek upgrade that will withstand the elements.
The BC-HDSWC-WR Harley-Davidson Handlebar Control allows installers to replace the radio in a motorcycle, while retaining the use of the factory handlebar audio controls. This easy-to-install interface uses a patented Auto-Detect system to configure itself for the specific motorcycle application and aftermarket radio being installed. The interface provides wires for front speakers, constant power, switched power and ground, and includes a water-resistant enclosure. This product works with the 95-HDIF2 Harley-Davidson Road Glide FLT/Sharknose fairing featured above. It can be made to work with all models by pairing with Metra’s BC-9725 Amp Bypass Harness.
The BC-9711 Harley-Davidson Rear Speaker Harness allows riders to easily upgrade the sound system in their motorcycles. It fits nicely into the 95-HDIF2 Harley-Davidson Road Glide FLT/Sharknose fairing. This harness will keep your factory rear speakers playing, with plug-n-play ease, using factory Molex connectors. Constructed with 18-gauge oxygen-free copper for the best possible conductivity and audio performance.
The BC-AMP05 Harley-Davidson Road Glide FLT Amp Mounting Plate installs inside the front fairing and can be mounted to the clutch or brake side of the main fairing mounting bolts. Mounting plate, hook and loop pad, and cable ties are included in the package. The mounting plate is black powder-coated steel with slots around the outside edge which can be used to secure the wiring for the amplifier with the supplied cable ties. This mounting plate is small enough to fit into the limited space within fairings and should be paired with a micro amp. We recommend amps that are 4.5”W x 8”L x 1.5”H, as noted in the included instructions. This product is compatible with the 95-HDIF2 Harley-Davidson Road Glide FLT/Sharknose replacement fairing.
Amplifier Mounting Plate – Fits 2014-up Harley-Davidson Street Glide
In addition to the BC-AMP05 mounting plate, Saddle Tramp also has a new amp mounting plate for Harley-Davidson Street Glide motorcycles; the BC-AMP06. This product is installed on top of the OE radio tray and reuses the factory bolts. The kit includes a hook and loop pad and cable ties. The mounting plate is black powder-coated steel with slots around the outside edge which can be used to secure the wiring for the amplifier with the supplied cable ties. Original fairings on these motorcycle models offer adequate space for aftermarket amps.

Rydeen’s Phil Maeda and Ruben Torres have been on the road in California showing, and demoing, the new TOMBO 360 Rearview Mirror/DVD to dealers.
Maeda related “Our stop at 559 Car Stereo in Fresno yesterday, Wednesday March 9th, was terrific. While giving a demo to Sako Topalian a customer with a commercial truck arrived looking for a way to have better visibility around his truck. He jumped into the Rydeen van for a demo of the TOMBO 360. After seeing a full demo Sako made the sale of the TOMBO 360 on the stop.”
In a conversation with 12volt News staff Topalian indicated 559 had placed an order for the customer’s TOMBO 360 plus additional units for display and inventory.
DAYTONA BEACH FL (03.11.22) Progressive American Flat Track has announced an 18-round schedule for the 2022 season that will bring the world’s premier dirt track motorcycle racing series to new venues in new markets as well as a return to the major motorcycle rallies.
Ideally balanced in its March-October dates, coast-to-coast locations, and blend of eight Half-Miles, five Miles, two TTs, and three Short Tracks, the ‘22 slate is set to establish Progressive AFT as a highlight attraction at some of the world’s biggest motorcycling events.
The season will kick off with an epic Daytona Bike Week doubleheader on Thursday, March 10 and Friday, March 11 with the Volusia Half-Mile I & II to properly set the stage for the year ahead.
KICKER is on site with Lorin Morrell with an expanded presence for 2022 as the season begins. KICKER is the Official Audio Sponsor in 2022 and the Presenting Sponsor of the AFT Singles Category.
The circuit continues with Progressive AFT rounds reinstated as key components of the massively popular Laconia Motorcycle Week and Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Finally, the 2022 Grand National Championship battle will come full circle with a return visit to Daytona Beach during Biketoberfest for the Volusia Half-Mile III season finale. In addition, several other events will have a similarly celebratory feel with high-profile showdowns on holiday weekends including Memorial Day, Independence Day and Labor Day.
The annual legendary Midwest events, the Springfield Mile doubleheader, Peoria TT and Lima Half-Mile, all return on the same weekends while four events will move to new weekends in 2022. After a rain-out in 2021, the Texas Half-Mile moves to a new date in March to be a part of IndyCar weekend at Texas Motor Speedway. The New York Short Track and Port Royal Half-Mile will both move to new weekends in July, and Cal Expo will play host to the Sacramento Mile in August.
There is a new look on the KICKER Pickup this year for the Progressive American Flat Track circuit when Lorin Morrell arrives to be Livin’Loud and show the latest products.
A number of fan and rider favorite venues are back following temporary absences. The Red Mile, Laconia Short Track and Black Hills Half-Mile last took place in 2019 and are set to make their triumphant return to the calendar in 2022.
The Castle Rock TT, meanwhile, is back following a lengthier pause. The ‘22 edition will mark the 28th inclusion of the adrenaline-fueled race on the Progressive AFT schedule and a return to the Pacific Northwest for the first time since 2014. The event is sure to be one of the most unique events on the tour thanks to a collaboration with Thor Drake, renowned for his ability to curate motorcycle art, racing and culture and deliver highly entertaining events such as The One Moto Show and The Wild One.
There will also be two new additions to the slate: I-70 Half-Mile in Odessa, Missouri, and the Cedar Lake Short Track in New Richmond, Wisconsin. The stop in Odessa is Progressive American Flat Track’s first in Missouri since 2005 while the race in New Richmond will be the series’ first in Wisconsin since 2003.

DIANA BEACH FL (03.11.22) TURY engineers, manufactures and offers a complete lineup of interfaces from factory key fob window, sunroof and side mirrors automation to a throttle response kit designed to eliminate the gas pedal delay found in many drive by wire vehicles.
TURY FAST is a throttle response enhancement product. With 36 different levels of adjustment, it allows the driver to find the most improvement to their liking.
Jayson Cook, Sales Manager Columbus Car Audio, just received a TURY Fast order at the company’s Columbus OH store.
Jayson Cook, Sales Manager, with the new TURY Fast in the Columbus Car Audio Columbus OH store.
“We just received it and I installed it in my personal vehicle and LOVE it! I think this is going to be a good add on to sales with a lot of our clients. It is a quick and easy install and works very well. I think it is priced similar to other throttle controllers but does a lot more. The lock out feature alone is a home run in my opinion.”
Continuing Cook added “This is a product that will requite the sales person to actually discuss and for shops to get behind and promote. At this point it will not be a product that people will come in asking for yet because of how new it is. CCA is very excited about the TURY Fast and looking forward to showing it and installing it for our customers.”
FAST also has a few unique functions. From the TURY FAST Bluetooth App, the driver can “lock out” the gas pedal which makes the vehicle immovable even if the keys are left inside. FAST can provide a level of security that most aftermarket systems don’t.
FAST also has a valet mode. The driver can select the amount of throttle response; limiting the speed and performance of the vehicle.
TURY is also developing trailer connection harnesses specifically catered to the US market and many other unique items that will be announced over the next several months.
STILLWATER, USA – 03/10/2022 – After several months of avoiding events due to COVID-19, KICKER will once again take to the road this summer, this time for Slamology – one of the largest car-audio events in the country. The show will take place June 11-12 at Lucas Oil Raceway outside of Indianapolis.
A regular at events prior to the pandemic, KICKER has supported Slamology since its inception 19 years ago. In addition to Slamology’s well-earned reputation as a first-class car show, it is also known to be the premiere car-audio event on the planet. KICKER will attend the show with its 80-foot XRV (Xtreme Recreational Vehicle) tractor-trailer, which will be located in “Audio Vendor Row” on the south grounds. The KICKER road crew at the XRV will regularly conduct full-tilt demo sessions for audiophiles and those who enjoy loud bass.
Slamology founder Donnie Babb bills the event as family friendly, yet edgy.
“We wanted a way to connect with our readers at Gauge Magazine and have a weekend-long party,” said Babb. “That has brought in droves of people, and made the show one of the largest car, truck and audio events in the world.”
Slamology anticipates in excess of 2,000 show cars visiting for the two-day event, with nearly 20,000 spectators expected to attend. The show also features live, local-based bands on stage, along with other car show-type competitions and contests.
Simultaneously, USACi, MECA, IASCA and Bass Wars will all regulate independent multi-point, car-audio competitions, featuring hundreds of the world’s best Sound-Quality and SPL competitors vying for desired championship points, trophies and prizes.
