Translation?

I posted the photo to Facebook:

Me: Please translate the text on this shop or restaurant sign at the site of the al Bayda massacre.
Issa Alawi Issa: Like it said accessories and service.
Me: "Accessories and service"? For what? Mobile phones maybe? Or cars? Is this something that could be written on the door of a cafeteria or a restaurant?
Issa Alawi Issa: I think more likely phone shop or car audio shop maybe. Also I think it is where the killings took place.

I already did that, same results. Handy to have confirmation though. Should have pasted it here, but I think it's in the article. Found no matches, but another Biassi ran a computer store in Baniyas. --Caustic Logic (talk) 09:11, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Here is a store in Saudi Arabia that offers "accessories" and "service".

However, an image search for "accessories","service" and "Syria" produces less phones and more cars.

Considering the view from inside the space, I think it is safe to conclude, this is a garage offering car service. Thus in the street views we should see a drive through garage door. Finding one would enable us to place the bodies on the map. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 23:31, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
