Ignition interlock installation in Brea, CA
Our Brea shop is the north Orange County base for installation, 60-day recalibrations and removals. Basic installation is free on standard vehicles, and most appointments take about an hour and a half.
The Brea shop
We install and service ignition interlock devices at 2960 Saturn Street, Unit H, Brea, CA 92821, just off the 57. It is the shop most north county drivers use, and it is set up for walk-through appointments rather than drop-offs: you wait, we install, we train you on the device, and you leave with the paperwork in your hand.
North Orange County coverage
Brea is the closest of our locations for drivers in Fullerton, Placentia, Yorba Linda, La Habra, Buena Park, Anaheim, Cypress, Stanton and Orange. If you are further south, our Costa Mesa and Lake Forest locations will be a shorter drive.
We also come to you. Our technicians install at homes and workplaces across north county, which is worth asking about if your vehicle is not currently driveable or if getting to a shop during business hours is the hard part. Mobile installation carries a separate service charge, quoted before we book anything.
What your appointment looks like
- Bring yourself and the vehicle. No paperwork needed - we do not need your license, court order or registration at the appointment.
- Installation. About an hour and a half for a standard vehicle. Push-button ignitions, aftermarket remote starters and non-standard wiring can take longer, and any additional labor is quoted before we start.
- Training. How to start the vehicle, how rolling retests work, and what each prompt on the display means.
- Documentation. You leave with the compliance paperwork the California DMV requires, including form DL 920, the Verification of Installation.

If your device locks out
A violation lockout does not have to mean a tow. In most cases we can perform a remote unlock over the phone, which saves the towing bill and the lost day. Call (844) 229-9122 and have your vehicle and the device's display handy.
