Mod friendly dealerships in SoCal?

What are the mod friendly dealerships in Southern California? I need to get some TSB work done and I don't want any documentation of mods that may void my warranty later.

I need work done b/c of the radio station scrolling defect in the car. I already removed my stillen grounding kit (it sucks btw) just in case. I would like to know for future reference so I don't have to waste time unistalling something, taking it to the dealership, then reinstalling the part. Kind of a bitch if I have an exhaust or something like that.

I hope Santa Monica is, pretty sure Glendale is not.

I know it's far, but Riverside I've heard is the best with doing work on modded cars.

^ +1.. Riverside Infiniti is by far the best dealership to go to... Great people, won't give you crap on your mods, and it took them about 45 minutes to change out my radio problem...

I have JWT's. Do you think Kearny Mesa would give me crap when I go in for an oil change and so other problems that I am having? No problems related to intake though.

Dealers can technically turn you away for ANY modification. Remember, they reserve the right to refuse service.

Now any dealer that refuses service for intakes is retareded... but Kearny Mesa doesn't have the best of reputations.

What if it was the stock internals that failed?

I hope you get the radio problem fixed. But I have to say that’s another reason why many of us older folks prefer to keep our cars stock. I would hate to fear going to any dealership because of a mod that voids my warranty.

Having said that, if the radio problem is not due to a mod, you should have no problem having it repaired at any Infiniti dealership regardless of what other mods you have (unless you replaced the head unit and speakers with some ear shattering boom box).
