        <description>Local businessman John Getty has opened Sound Waves, a new business at Airport Drive and Wilson Road that offers everything cars. He&#039;s building on a wholesale business he&#039;s had for years. 
While it&#039;s been open since Jan. 2, he&#039;s having a grand opening and ribbon-cutting at 1 p.m. Friday, Feb. 29. 
The store is open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday at 1116 Airport Drive. 
&amp;quot;A lot of the neighbors have come in already,&amp;quot; Getty said today. 
And neighbors are part of the story. Getty said he bought up property that included a long-standing vacant commercial building and two run-down houses. He&#039;s spiffed up and remodeled the houses and rented them out, and refurbished the business building. 
So what can you buy? A sampling: Aftermarket car and truck accessories, including alarm installation, bed liners, running boards, GPS navigation, tool boxes, reverse safety systems, chrome accessories, car audio and hands-free cellular equipment.
