Extreme Auto Caravan and Camping
Matthew started a trade in cabinet making and finished up fully qualified in 1999. He then moved onto work at GMH from 2001 to 2005 where he did various training courses on plc’s, Fanuc systems, Automotive Electronics and Computer Robotic systems. After the rumours that automotive manufacturing in Australia was winding down, Matthew decided to leave GMH and pursue bigger and better things.
Early 2006 Matthew commenced employment at renowned automotive/ mechanical workshop, CarToys. Fitting custom car audio systems, alarms, dvd players, boost controllers, automotive electronics and more. All of the custom work you can think of including the award winning S15 Nissan Silvia, IMMORTAL. After a few years, Matthew left CarToys to pursue a management role at an Autobarn workshop. Overseeing other installers and working on the floor, he realised that he wanted to run a business with a major focus on customer service and improvements to quality. focusing on the caravan and camping industry.

March 3, 2019There are good reasons that these guys are flat out and booked months in advance.

Matt and Riley did a great job upgrading the power and solar capabilities of our Eagle Cherokee and fixed the Anderson set up on our Prado (that was new but substandard) and even wired up a new set of spotlights too. Matt explained a number of shortcomings and misconceptions regarding some of the "plug and play" harness and wiring looms that get sold to unknowing customers (me) and saved me time, effort and likely damage had I attempted the job myself. I cannot recommend these guys highly enough.

Matthew took the time to ring me after my initial email enquiry, talked me through my options, did a quote outlining costs and while I had a lengthy wait due... read more to his workload he turned up exactly when he said he would and improved our off grid 12v system on our caravan.

An added bonus is his mobile service even though we are outside the metro area, Highly recommended. David Hodge

We didn’t mind driving up from Melbourne and waiting for over 3 months for a booking to get some of Matt’s 12volt expertise in upgrading our lithium power... read more needs, SatKing Pro satellite and Cel-fi Signal booster and Sirocco fans installation to the bunk as well as additional solar panels on our JB Scorpion Sting. We’d rate Matt’s knowledge to that of an ‘Expert’ in his field. Matt and his apprentice Riley have a lovely disposition, great work ethic and utmost regard for the client’s gear. They covered all surfaces before working on them, even put cardboard on the floor inside the van, taking great care not to scratch or damage the caravan. Even their ladder has a soft protective foam to avoid damage to the van when leaning against it. They arrived on time, worked diligently, cleaned up after themselves and even went the extra mile to repair / amend some rather ordinary factory work on the caravan which was well outside the scope of their engagement with us. We found the price to be reasonable and the quality of their work is unmatched. After sales support is amazing with Matt. He is not shy to answer his phone and attended to your queries. Will be using and recommend Matt’s service in the future without the slightest hesitation. Thank you Matt and Riley. We love the work you have done. We can now free camp for so much longer, have phone reception with Cel-fi booster to work remotely and the SatKing to enjoy TV in the middle of no where and kids can stay cool in WA and the NT with their new fans Cheers Daniel, Preeti and kids!
