Default Recommended shop(s) for alignment in SF Bay

SF Bay guys,

Any recommendations for a shop to work with on alignment in the Bay Area? I live on the Peninsula so someplace over here would be preferable.
I saw that HolgerB recommended Sonnen and Austin @ TRG recommended Custom Alignment in Mt. View. Just gathering input on where you may have had a good experience.

Also, I will probably have the rear toe links installed then have the car aligned as a starter. Still pondering the settings I'd like to dial in initially after trying to digest all the recommendations here on Rennlist

Thanks in advance.

i dont like custom alignment, though they have cult like following. they never asked how i intend to use my car and just aligned the car however way they chose.

sonnen seems to be fine as holger has good exp with them.

i do my wiht tony at tcdesignfab.com in milpitas

also roger kraus around castro valley (far from you) is very very good as well.

Thanks everyone. From Mooty's post sounds like custom alignment might not be the right shop to develop a relationship with but might be okay if you know exactly what you want. But I'll check in with TC first given several thumbs up and close proximity.
