Los Labs has been featured in a number of national publications for
work and innovation in the aftermarket fabrication industry, the latest of which are featured below: 
Mobile Electronics Magazine, June 2006 Experiment: A test performed to demonstrate a known truth, examine the validity of a hypothesis, or ascertain the effectiveness of something previously untried.
What begas as a hobby for 15-year old Carlos Hickman has, years later, been demonstrated with much certainty and
validity at Fort Wayne, IN, shop Los Labs Automotive Firm. No, not the last three letters of his first name, and no,
not an affiliation with any city beginning with the previx. "Los", meaning Logic Operating Systems, is a term that
Hickman created to describe the art of building unique circuitry for OEM integration electronics. Cool name for a shop
that's seen a solid rise since its inception.

Mobile Electronics Magazine, January 2006 Carlos Hickman, Founder / Owner / Lead Installer of LOS (Logic Operating Systems) Labs Automotive Firm in Fort Wayne, Indiana, has created the prototype for a conversion kit that he designed for use in various model years of the Dodge Dakota and Dodge Durango.
Hickman, also an electronic engineering technology student at Purdue University, caught the attention of Bob Sheaves, CEO of
catNET, an engineering consultation company hired by an auto manufacturer. Sheaves had heard about the work that Hickman was doing
at LOS Labs and came to him with a lucrative business proposition.

Mobile Electronics Magazine, February 2005 Dashboards that share heating, ventilation, and air conditioning controls (HVAC) with the radio are becoming commonplace in late-model vehicles, making head unit upgrades almost impossible, and limiting many installers to speaker and amplifier jobs. Of the 2004 model year, about 38 vehicles have a physical dash design that doesn't allow for drop-in radio replacement.
Among these untouchable, integrated dashes is the one found on Infiniti's 2004 G35. Carlos Hickman of Los Labs
recently transformed this vehicle into a showstopper by remolding and reassembling the entire center dash (which alone
took a month), separating and relocating the climate control components, fabricating custom fiberglass kick panels for
the dashboard to house a 6.5-inch widescreen LCD, relining the interior in blue suede, and glassing the entire trunk
to house two JL Audio 12W7 subwoofers, 2 1000/1 JL amps, a Sharp Aquos 10-inch LCD screen, and 2 JL Audio TR535-CXi
5.25-inch coaxials. Click here for full article...
